A beautiful coming of age film

Warning: Spoilers
What beautiful film about love in all its forms. Love found, love lost, love unrequited. Your heart goes out to the central character Pimm. He lives in a single parent household with his mother but she is far more interested in going out and socializing than giving him any attention. At one point she is going out and for dinner she just tells him to open a can of sardines.He becomes infatuated with the handsome slightly older boy next door and at one point even jumps at the opportunity to move in with his family when his mother runs off with a new man leaving him behind only to find out that the boy he loves has grown up and also moved out of town.It does tend to be slow but I thought the slow build up just adds to the story. The final ten minutes had me on the edge of my seat afraid of what was going to happen. If you don't cry as much as I did your not human.
