彩虹男孩

尤金，一位患有唐氏综合症的男孩，将要踏上他的冒险旅程：他将前往彩虹尽头，寻找那装满黄金的罐子，拯救这糟糕的生活。The Rainbow Kid is a gritty coming of age story that follows Eugene, a teenager with Down syndrome, on the journey of his life. Obsessed with everything rainbows, whether it's their beauty, their symbolism, or the myths that surround them, this obsession acts as an escape from his real life, which is a mess: he's bullied at school, the girl he likes doesn't notice him, and his mother is terminally ill. Worse, he discovers that he and his mom are on the verge of being evicted. Eugene decides to take matters into his own hands. He'll find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Eugene will save the day. An optimistic Eugene sets out on an adventure across rural Ontario and encounters a host of larger than life characters: an alcoholic dowser, a burned-out punk rocker, and a special needs girl with a disturbing home life. As he struggles to adapt and understand the worrisome situations he finds himself in, a strange thing happens: He begins to experience rainbow mythologies first hand, but the line between fact and fiction soon blur together. Eugene's odyssey becomes more and more dangerous, but he forges head, taking the challenges head on.
