AroView: A visionary reimagining of the Peter Pan story from director Benh Zeitlin, with two children from different worlds fighting to hold onto their youthful freedom and joy in the face of growing up in the rural American South. Filled with all the gorgeous stylistic flourishes that made Zeitlin’s earlier film BEASTS OF THE SOUTHERN WILD so spectacular.

“In every way feels like a handmade, one-of-a-kind, exceptionally fresh and — one hesitates to use the word — organic piece of work that quite quickly imparts a desire to see it again.” ~ Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter.
