Silverpoint
What's the Story?
In SILVERPOINT, a group of young teens discovers that a fellow camper has taken off in the middle of the night. But when they cross through a fence marked "Danger," they find their friend -- and a mysterious force that levitates objects off of the ground. Curious, they return to the spot and begin to explore the force that's causing strange things to happen. What will they discover? Who -- or what -- is behind the creepy things happening beyond the fence?
Is It Any Good?
Mild, to-the-point, action-packed and mysterious, this show engages while avoiding disturbing or violent territory. Silverpoint is set at a summer camp; there are hammocks and archery bullseyes aplenty, which lends a festive, but vibe. The characters are on the go, throwing themselves into solving a paranormal mystery.
It's not the strongest, most complex show out there, but it will appeal to tweens or younger teens who want to watch Stranger Things, but are too young or too skittish to do so. Parents won't mind bingeing with their tweens while paying bills or folding laundry -- it's easy viewing for multitaskers.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about curiosity in Silverpoint. The campers are curious about strange events they encounter outside of camp limits. When is curiosity a good thing, and when does it get you in trouble?
Teens in this show lie about what they've been up to. What can a show like this teach an audience about integrity? What does integrity look like to you?
When the older teens in this show want to do something fun, they tend to break rules. Does having fun mean breaking rules? Why or why not?
