Billy the Kid (2007)

Directed by Jennifer Venditti

Documentary

Overview

“I’m not black, I’m not white, not foreign, just different in the mind. Different brains, that’s all,” explains 15-year-old Billy in Jennifer Venditti’s provocative coming of age film. Following Billy as he bicycles through the quiet streets of small town Maine, we watch him traverse the frustrating gap between imagination and reality, grappling with isolation and first-time young love. By turns exhilarating and disturbing, we see the world from the intimate view of an expressive and seemingly fearless outsider.

Viewing Notes

An interesting look into the life of a very strange, yet amazing, kid in small-town Maine. He is much more well-adjusted in some ways and completely gone from reality and social boundaries in others. At times it can be cringe inducing and others your are cheering for young Billy. Either way, he’s an exceptional boy and this is a great look at him.
