Clash of .. cultures
1 September 2023
No pun intended - if you grew up in a country that is not the one your parents where born in - you may understand what the girl has to go through here. At least to some degree - her mother especially trying to guide her ... although of course that alienates her even more.

A few things are not spoken out ... loud, but you can feel her struggle to fit in. Trying to be cool with the ... well cool kids of her school. At first she seems quite rational - her decisions make sense ... as the movie progresses she does make choices that are not as rational ... well not always that is.

That being said, you need people to act a bit differently, otherwise what would be the fun of it, right? And how would they get themselves in situations where they seems helpless .. and without any chance? Well that is for you to see .. there quite a few harrowing scenes in this ... and it really creates quite the atmosphere ... really a good one ... if you let yourself immerse in it!
