Jonathan "Jonno" Durrant (Fraser "Fiz" MacIntosh) is a 12-year old boy with a vivid imagination. He is also experiencing trouble with his new step father. When he witnesses a murder, no one will believe him. Fraser is a talented young actor, but only appeared in one other film--"Vojnik". The movie was filmed in Yugoslavia which was an inexpensive place to work. They shot off the Adriatic Coast of Montenegro--an exotic vacation resort at time. Locals were used as extras. Jonno sees the killer dispossong of a body during a family vacatuon. While his parents don't believe him, the killers do, putting the boy in danger. It did not hve a major film release, but was widely shown in late-night television. Some of the production values are lacking, but the acting is excellent.
