Watch the CHANCE (2020) trailer or read some reviews before watching this movie.
This is NOT a cheerful family movie and I would not recommend it for young children.
NOTE the brief initial scene! It shows that something shocking will happen later in this movie. "BASED ON A TRUE STORY" appears immediately after that.
The first 40 minutes show a healthy lifestyle of mentoring, then teen relationships become the main plot and things get weirdly paranoid. Any remaining mentoring scenes are contrasted with scenes of relationship issues. This seems like a collision of 2 different movies.
The story gets confusing as it moves through brief disjointed scenes that lead to the shock from the initial scene. Many people in the movie are traumatized by the result. They gather to deal with it in various ways. In the final scene we see a return to mentoring children.
All scenes are believable as they are portrayed. This movie provokes questions and could lead to discussions of awkward topics.
Whatever your feelings are , please respect that people actually experienced these events in their daily lives and this legacy lives on in their community. Viewers need to consider the personal character of individuals portrayed rather than just by the words that they speak.
