This film uses the format of the successful documentary series of Michael Apted's in which a group of children are filmed and interviewed at age seven, then returned to every seven years to see how their lives and personalities have developed. Over in Great Britain the series has followed its original subjects to age 42.
It's a sure-fire concept for an absorbing film series. As stated by the narrator/director Phil Joanou, the idea is to see how much a person changes in their life, if the blueprint for the man or woman is actually set at a young age. What are the answers? Yes, no, and draw your own conclusions. Whatever you decide it is fascinating to watch the juxtaposition of the children and the adolescents they've become. Tune in again in 2005.
