Bloom

Bloom is a coming-of-age story about grief, gardening and growing up

Following the death of his father, 15-year-old Daniel and his mother, Lisa, are forced to move to unfamiliar Flint, Michigan

After a violent outburst at his new school, Daniel's social worker, Michelle, suggests he spend a week working with her father, Bobby - an urban gardener of several abandoned lots in the middle of the city

A week soon turns into a few months, and as the two men spend the summer tending the gardens, they begin to plant some much-needed hope in a neighborhood plagued by blight

And in so doing, they help each other heal some old wounds

Unit set - runs about 1 hour 45 minutes
