Josh and S.A.M. (1993)

In the heart of suburban America, two brothers, Josh and Sam, find themselves on the brink of drastic change. Tensions are high at home, with their mother preparing to marry a French accountant and the boys facing relocation to Florida with their estranged father. Amidst the chaos, brotherly bonds fray and Josh feels abandoned as Sam forges alliances with their father's stepsons. In a bid to reclaim his brother's loyalty and escape their unsettling reality, Josh employs his imaginative prowess and spins a tale that transforms Sam into a "S.A.M." - a genetically altered mutant supposedly destined for combat in an African war. Canada, Josh convinces Sam, is the sanctuary for any S.A.M. unwilling to fight. Thus, an audacious plan is hatched. The brothers decide to run away, not as unhappy children, but as secret agents on a covert mission to reach the safety of the Canadian border. Their journey takes an unexpected turn when they believe they've killed a drunken man and steal his car to continue their flight. Their path intertwines with Alison, who Josh introduces as the 'Liberty Maid' - their key to successfully crossing the border. Dodging law enforcement and a host of other pursuers, the brothers navigate their way across the country, their adventure rife with tension, excitement, and unexpected companionship. As they draw closer to their destination, Josh and Sam are forced to reconsider their perceptions of home and family, wondering if the life they left behind was truly as unbearable as they once thought. Will they find the safe haven they seek in Canada, or will their daring escapade leave them wishing they'd never dared to leave home? The thrilling odyssey of Josh and Sam is a testament to the resilience of brotherhood and the transformative power of imagination in the face of adversity.

Josh and S.A.M. is an action movie featuring Jacob Tierney and directed by Billy Weber.
