2. Son of Rambow: A love letter to the movies set in the 1980s. Will is a shy young boy who is different from other kids because of his family’s religion which does not allow him to have friends at school or watch television. He gets into a fight with Lee, a tough kid constantly getting into trouble. Lee forces Will to help him make a homemade version of FIRST BLOOD. After watching the original, Will is captivated and writes his own sequel, casting himself as the son of “Rambow”. The boys use imagination and grit to launch the project and bond as blood-brothers. Soon the entire school wants to participate, including the ultra-cool French exchange student, jeopardizing the integrity of the production as well as Will and Lee's growing friendship.
