"With “The Summer Off,” teen filmmaker Bannon is coming into his own with a distinctive voice and a visual

style that some directors may go decades without establishing. After a drunk driving incident that almost kills

him and his best friend, 17-year old Ethan (Mark Dew) is sent to stay with his hippy-trippy Uncle Jack (Steve Silverman)

and Jack’s daughter Mary (Anna Didio). While there, Ethan discovers that problems of emotional and chemical nature

can cross generational boundaries." (Film Threat Review by Pete Vonder Haar)
