A true story, told documentary style, of a 13-year old boy from Texas who disappears, never to be found again.
That kind of gives away the ending, as does the title and the fact that when a guy claiming to be the missing boy is found 3 years later, in Spain, he has a distinct French accent.
These facts, and the plodding speed of the whole thing, fly in the face of one fan - presumably someone connected with the production - who pronounced on IMDB.com that "you're pretty much open-mouth and on the edge of your seat throughout the
film's entirety".
The only open-mouth-inducing element of this film was how on earth this imposter duped the authorities, and even the missing boy's family for so long. I'd stopped bothering with that conundrum long before the film ended, so it's a bug thumbs down from me.
