    7/10
    An art house movie about lots of things, like hair
    And family.

    This is an odd movie - and I love odd movies. Some people called it slow. I didn't think it was slow at all. Obviously they have never ever had trouble with their hair. And family. Nor been the new kid - at any age facing all kinds of new demands and challenges that seem ..... enormous, unending, unachievable, and just plain stupid.

    Is it fast paced? Nope. ROTHL? Nope. Is it worth your time? Yep.

    Enjoy.
