9/10
I truly heartfelt genuine authentic film
10 November 2023
As a hard-core Gen Xer, this movie hits so deep!

It's a unique meta-layered documentary type format that starts kind of slow but picks up in pace and obscurity. It encapsulates all the sweetness and confusion of first friendships and young love, teenage angst and all the in-betweens.

90s musician tori amos said that adolescence is the scariest place on earth. This film encompasses that very feeling of how moments you create in your youth can shape you for a lifetime. And if you're a Tori Amos fan you are in for a VERY special treat.

I also love the attention to detail for the 90s scenes.

I also loved all the home movies. You get to reminisce on those days when there were no cell phones or social media and everyone just was having a good time.

Cecilia wasn't afraid to color outside of the lines on this one. It's funny, heartfelt, and incredibly moving in so many ways. It made me laugh, (hysterical crying laughter in some scenes!!), made me nostalgic, moved me and just made me feel.

Bravo Cecilia and team x.
