It’s last week at school, but Simon’s not studying for his finals. His parents have divorced and seem to be waiting for a change that never comes. Simon gets tired of waiting. Could he get a one-way ticket to the USA? The young man’s concerns are composed of three chapters filmed over five years, interspersed with North American images of homeless teens.
Presented at San Sebastián and IndieLisboa film festivals.
