What makes this film "useful" for a viewer is its unflinching look at mental health. Each teen is drawn to the ghost for a different reason: one feels the pressure of academic expectations, one is being bullied, and one is facing a terminal illness. It is a poignant coming-of-age story that uses the supernatural to discuss why life is worth living.
Due to themes of suicide and bullying, Common Sense Media and IMDb recommend it for older teens and suggest parental guidance. Summer Ghost (Dub)
