12-year-old David is accidentally knocked out in the forest near his home, but when he awakens eight years have passed. His family is overjoyed to have him back, but is just as perplexed as he is that he hasn't aged.

Some will say this is not an amazing movie, but once the nostalgia kicks in from watching this as a kid, bro I don’t give a shit. Peak cinema.
