About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a patient, intimate coming-of-age drama about desire, rules, and a complicated parent-child bond, in the vein of Babyteeth or Princess Cyd; Not for you if you need fast pacing or clear-cut resolutions.
Pros: tender coming-of-age; nuanced mother-daughter tension; strong natural performances | Cons: slow pacing; some loose plot threads; ending feels unfocused
