Young boys in their early teen years always struggle with emotions, friendships, changes and fitting in. This film is about the fact that sometimes it is important for young boys to have friends that they can tell their inner-most fears and thoughts. “Fern Hill” is one of those coming of age stories, taking on a resemblance of the movie “Stand by Me’. In fact one of the characters mentions that their adventure is like that movie”but they are not looking for a dead boy”.

At times this movie is tense and other times it will make you laugh. Dove awards this film the Dove “Family-Approved” Seal for 12+.
