Overview

Pete, an eight-year-old Catholic boy growing up in the suburbs of Chicago in the mid-1970s, attends Catholic school, where as classes let out for the summer, he's admonished by a nun to follow the path of the Lord, and not that of the Devil. Perhaps taking this message a bit too seriously, Pete decides it's his goal for the summer to help someone get into heaven - by trying to convert a Jew to Catholicism.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gentle, funny coming-of-age story about a well-meaning Catholic kid whose summer mission to convert his Jewish neighbor becomes an unexpected friendship. It's warm-hearted without being saccharine, finding both humor and heart in childhood innocence colliding with religious earnestness.
