The Extraordinary Journey of Mister Jack

Sarah Moon Howe

“When Jack told me he wanted to go to Paris on a tricycle to sleep in ‘the chicest hotel in the world,’ I saw it as a chance to escape a suffocating daily life, shaped by obsessions, narrow interests, and hospital visits.
Aboard our improbable vehicle, we set out to conquer the world—and ourselves.”

The Extraordinary Journey of Mister Jack is a family road movie, filmed almost entirely by its protagonists. It immerses us in the perspective of an atypical young man, unfiltered, discovering the world with humor and poetry, carried along by the inexhaustible energy of his mother and the kindness of his grandmother.
