Synopsis

I AM DAVID is the celebrated film adaptation of Anne Holm’s internationally acclaimed novel North to Freedom. Garnering audience and jury awards at film festivals throughout the United States, it is the story of a 12-year-old boy, David, who escapes a... See more Communist concentration camp possessing little more than a compass, a sealed letter, a loaf of bread, and an inherent distrust of people. With instructions to carry the letter to Copenhagen, Denmark, David is thrust into the free world for the first time in his young life. His trek across Europe is a physical test of will as well as a spiritual voyage of discovery, where David slowly sheds his cynical view of humanity and begins to smile, share, trust and, ultimately, love. I AM DAVID addresses the cruelties, politics, and suffering of warfare while celebrating the resilience of youth and the unbreakable spirit of a child.
