🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs an honest and delicate portrait of teenage crisis, relying on the protagonist's personal diary as its primary narrative device. It explores universal themes of alienation, first love, and finding one's footing in a new world.

What lingers after the credits is a sense of tender recognition—a reminder of the seismic shifts that feel small only in retrospect. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Nicole van Kilsdonk
