Waiting on the Alchemist

To talk about afterwards

• Is there a character in the film you resonated with? If so, who?
• What two worlds do you see colliding for Frankie and what are the opposing views?
• What do you think his mom meant when she said that not going back (to school) isn't going to change anything here"?
• How do you approach a situation when change is required? Have you seen instances where change has brought about something unexpectedly good?
• The big idea of The Alchemist is about a kid going on an adventure and finding his treasure at great odds. What treasure are you searching for?
