“Lucas Rocks”
Life changes forever for Lucas, a shy twelve-year-old who prefers collecting rocks to rocking out with friends, after he finds a mischievous spirit hiding in a chunk of quartz he brought back to Canada from the Australian Outback. This spirit is determined to rock Lucas’ world by setting off absurdly chaotic chain reactions that force him out of his shell with hilarious consequences. Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place.
