Overview

Aged 13, Daniel Moss thinks life is too short to wait for adulthood before starting on the ladder to success. His unrelenting sprint on the path to greatness leaves a trail of exhausted parents and relatives in its wake. But he also has a bar mitzvah to get through, a stage play to write and direct, and school exams to take. Daniel's parents are divorced, but he maintains a close relationship with both of them, offering a unique view of modern family life from the perspective of a child in the middle. Fast and funny, Daniel's video diary keeps pace with the breathless routine of his life as a young Jewish boy - under pressure, and frustrated by the slow adult world.
