Fun tale of a 16-year-old girl who takes her parents hostage after they miss her big jump-roping competition. This film is worthy of all the hopes you have. The only thing that keeps it afloat is the sensitivity of the bilaterally desperately needy relationship between the characters. The characters in this film have a lot of depth and the realism with which they are portrayed by the actors is shocking at times. All of the fancy characters struggle against a system that has perpetuated falsehoods. This is the kind of film that truly proves that a small story can be much more meaningful than a larger one. Some of the dialog could be better.
