Bobby is an 11-year-old boy who lives with his mother. They are facing some hardships ever since his father died. When a new boarder -- a man in his mid-sixties -- moves into the upper story of the house in which they live, Bobby strikes up a friendship with him. The older man seems to be running away from something or someone.
Half-baked story about not one, but two people with extrasensory faculties. It is supposed to be nostalgic and life-affirming, but its plot is absurd and there isn't a single sequence in the whole film that rings true. On the other hand, it moves at a decent pace, and has some nice Virginia landscapes in the summer, so it isn't completely unwatchable.
