Kisses
Writer and director Lance Daly's powerful drama about two kids caught in a hostile world. Dylan and Kylie, two troubled Irish kids escape their abusive small town environment to the streets of Dublin where greater danger awaits them. Daly shows with great skill and heart along with outstanding performances by Kelly O'Neill and Shane Curry the perils of childhood in an hostile world before they make a journey of discovery where they find some happiness and love for music, even though it's short lived. In a wonderful sequence a Dredger captain (the excellent David Bendito) introduces the kids to the music of Bob Dylan shows that a gesture of kindness goes a long way with impressionable kids. YRCinema's coverage of the San Francisco International Film Festival.
