Spanish province of galicia, ''the land of 1000 rivers'', butragueno , the cape of finisterre, and the rolling meadows of wooded and fruitful backcountry, a flock of 5 boys enters a trip to a holy mountain to collect flowerbeads from a magic plant to heal ill struck friends and family members.

A charming bud of midsummer,a charming story that at moments are so emotional that youll be involved nevertheless. Adolescence and limited knowledge of how the world spins around, and howcome things are brought together, their boldness in fear and lust and wishes come through, is brought ahead by a cast of youngsters, that hasnt got nerve in front of the lense, giving you a fly on the wall feeling, reminiscensic look back at your own concuering and exploring especially in the summer holiday glory days. Also a lovely musical score sets the grounds for a nice trip to your cinema seat.

At least the grumpy old man had experiences like this, so therefore a great recommend to ''live is life''.

Good film. But. A completely optional film for the old generation missing the past as a child. What for? There is Boyhood by Richard Linklater and Baaria by Giuseppe Tornatore; There is "Amarcord" by Federico Fellini and "Giant Little Ones" by Keith Behrman. There are a lot of films about unforgettable childhood and adolescence. "Words on Bathroom Walls" by Thor Freudenthal. The scenes with the disease look simulated and fake. This is not "Restless" by Gus Van Sant. A good, kind, but not complete film about summer and adolescence. The score is between 6 or 7.

Well. It reminds me a bit of goonies. A group of school boys it's one with his background are starting one summer a day of adventure. While the scenario unfold we find that each one is an adult to be. Every character is unique but we realize that no one can't stand by his own. So all together are searching their grown self inside of the plot. I really liked the pictures and landscapes of the modern Spain and moreover the bond with the different scenes like every scene was to be unfolded in every landscape. Overall it's a very sentimental movie with modern slang in many points but it's kinda amusing the way that all of the characters are using it in every occasion.

If I can give a score it's clearly an 8 but I had a rough time to follow the dialogues and figuring out why did the kids had to take an unknown baby from a house and how did this had to blend in the story. Anyway it was good and kinda amusing.
