In this intellectually sophisticated children's story, young John (Jacob Katz) has been under a lot of pressure because his parents are divorced and his mother will not let his father come see him. So when John has a dream about Jesus -- who turns out to be an impoverished little girl, in this case -- he is bound to feel better. The girl-Jesus has her own way of coming into and out of the picture but teaches John that no one is all bad or all good. - Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
