the bumblebee flies anyway

this film follows the story of a boy, played by elijah wood, who wakes up in a medical youth ward with to memory of his life before. as he begins to piece together his own history, he discovers that everyone else in the ward is dying from different incurable conditions. he himself isnt dying, but decides to stay there anyway until he can really understand his past. along the way he befriends many of the fellow patients. among them is a dying boy who's sister comes to visit. the boy asks elijah wood to entertain her while she's visiting him. he does and the two of them strike up a romance. he tries to make sense of all this while still trying to answer all the questions about his slowly emerging memories of a crash before he arrived. the movie isnt very good, we never really feel for elijah wood's character as he explores his past. the romance between the two characters is done fairly well, but the random ending involving a cart and an attic is rather strange and poorly conceived.
