Glasses

Milo is always losing his lunchbox, screwing up in class and humiliating himself on the playground. He'd like to be invincible like his comic book hero Captain Cosmo, but for a shy near-sighted kid, the humiliations of Grade One know no bounds! He lives in a lonely, blurry world and is blind to his one true friend, Gwenny.

A visit to the eye doctor brings things into focus. His first pair of glasses enables Milo to excel in class and on the playground. Full of new-found confidence, he loses sight of who his friends really are until a crushing accident reminds him.

Funny and poignant, Glasses is a vivid cinematic exploration of elementary school life and just how hard it can be when you don't see things quite the way everyone else does.
