Review: n 12 and Holding acclaimed director Michael Cuesta (L.I.E.) powerfully and honestly portrays the complexities of children losing their innocence and the adults struggling to guide them. Feeling the pull of childlike emotions and developing adult instincts, three kids navigate their desires for independence and needs for nurturing and safety. When a tragedy befalls one of their peers, they grapple with a sudden awareness of morality, contemplations of vengeance, and a very first crush.
