Come on Children is a 1973 documentary film by Canadian filmmaker Allan King.[1] The film is a cinéma vérité take on the lives of youth that reside at farm house for a ten-week stay away from families and the city of Toronto.
It documents the lives of a group of kids, aged 13 to 19, living together on a farm as a sort of social experiment. There aren't any adults supervising and they aren't going to school. Film introduces at the start the only narration where King says in that he thought would be interesting to study the characteristics that arise in each person as a result of this experiment.
In part it has the filmmaker revisit the troubled teenager subculture of his film Warrendale, with the hippie-era generational conflicts of the 1960s spilling over into the 1970s.[2] One of the teenagers in the film, aspiring musician Alex Živojinović, would soon go on to fame under the stage name Alex Lifeson.[2]
