Summary: My Childhood recounts the harrowing experiences of a young boy, Jamie, growing up in crippling poverty: material and emotional impoverishment; harrowing privations at the hands of his paternal grandmother; incarceration in a children’s home; living in a hostel for down-and-outs. (wikipedia.org)
Some beautiful photography and a handful of wonderful visual moments, but the tone is so relentlessly bleak and spare that it's hard to recommend as entertainment. Plus that German guy Helmut was really creepy.
Minimalistic, naturalistic, well-made, insightful, a little poignant. It's length is awkward and the story doesn't feel completely rounded. Still, an impressive piece of film-making.
