-Rating:  4/10
-Rating: ****
-Comment: Danny Barnham (as 6 yo Jack, actor looks a bit older) in a long white sailor suit, white collar, 1 thick stripe (pictured). Also in modern shorts and blue jeans jacket and a baseball cap.

A CFU production (The Children's Film Unit), maybe similar to the CFF/CFTF films, another CFF movie coming soon. I don't remember / don't know the complete movie (51 minutes), but looks like an unusual modern setting featuring a boy in sailor suit and jeans. 10 yo sister Kylie, played by Danielle Hawley, also starring Patsy Byrne, Gordon Griffin and Brian Sibley.

The plot is also quite interesting (two kids alone in this "Gingerbread" house), but I have to check this again and think there are better movies. Available on DVD directly from CFU, probably DVD-r. Hard to find with this title. No trailers on YouTube.

Rating 3-4 due to the young age. I also assume rather few sailor suit scenes.
