I Am David
2004
90 Min
Based on Anne Holm’s acclaimed young adult novel &NFi;North to Freedom&NFi_;, I Am David chronicles the struggles of a 12-year-old boy (Ben Tibber) who manages to flee a Communist concentration camp on his own — through sheer will and determination. All he has in his possession is a loaf of bread, a letter to deliver to someone in Denmark and a compass to help get him there. James Caviezel and Joan Plowright co-star.
In the life appreciation category, this tops my list. Nice to watch during Christmas season (:
