CGiii Comment

Child sexuality, child prostitution, child abuse - all difficult subjects.

This light-hearted approach is worrying - especially the nudity.

To allow children to 'act' in this is...is irresponsible - if not criminal.

The parents and director have a case to be answered.


No trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

A nine-year-old boy is obsessed with the sizable penis of his older friend.
