This is a brilliant film. It does have an intended a smidge of Hollywood cheese that it really didn't need. Watch it it is a great concept for our modern times. It questions our beliefs, education system and if we should 'fit in' or not. The best film for I saw in 2016.

Fantastic film about leaving the modern world behind. A must see for anyone who likes to be a bit out the system.

Simply fantastic, even if all it does is make you question the way you do things and why you do them.
