A young refugee boy strikes up an unlikely friendship with Batman in this charming film that also packs a pertinent punch.

International music agency MassiveMusic has teamed up with War Child, In Case of Fire, Sony and Universal to create a timely and powerful new film that highlights the plight of young refugees.

A young refugee boy strikes up an unlikely friendship with Batman in this charming film that also packs a pertinent punch. Set to Queen’s feel-good track, ‘You’re My Best Friend’, it follows the inseparable duo as they transform the refugee camp into their playground – playing football, arm-wrestling, and hide-and-seek. The heart-warming mood takes a surprising twist as the masked crusader is revealed to have been the boy’s father all along, and a result of the fantasy world constructed by the child as a coping mechanism to escape the grim reality of his life.

On March 20, 1990, Nirvana helped themselves late at night at Evergreen State College campus and walked right into their TV studio and recorded some footage.

The production is a step above, but not much, of those late-night, low-budget cable shows, please don’t try this at your local university. And if you do, don’t mention this blog.
