Output (English): The film is set in Liverpool in mid1950s. The story concerns 11yearold Bud and his loving mother and siblings. He lives a life rich in imagination, centred on family relationships, church, and the struggles of a shy boy at school. Music and snatches of movie dialogue allow him to enrich his narrow physical environment. Together these fragments, wrote Stephen Holden in the New York Times, evoke a postwar England starved for beauty, fantasy and a place to escape.
