Smooth film in which a teenage girl moves with her mother to live with her stepfather and stepbrother. And since she doesn't feel quite at home here, she's going to rebel quite a bit, as is expected from an adolescent. Clearly made for a certain target group, but still fun to watch. The fantasy scenes with the tips also form nice intermezzos. The acting is variable.

Nice coming of age.

We are now dealing with a kind of adolescent girl called Rosa (another very strong youth role, in which the Netherlands, in addition to Scandinavia, is still all-round), who is often overlooked and thus has its own identity and is also a sphere. in association, where, when we first get acquainted with her fantasy world, I immediately made a link with the old Cartoon series Angela Anaconda, which Rosa looks a lot like in my eyes. In the beginning it seems like a standard teenager, who is struggling with the fact that she has to move from Den Bosch to Groningen and also with the new things, surprises and needs that unexpectedly make way for her continuous, accustomed life she had before. In addition, she does not get along with her stepfather and at school she is just an outsider. It really means she has to face feelings, setbacks, disappointments and most of all; her identity.

And that is also done in a pretty fun and creative way and the fidgets, drawings and fantasy performances only make the film even more fun, and even more instructive. Even I was able to learn a few things from it again and maybe also for the future when I might have a child myself . In the end it just comes down to the fact that you just have to let your sweet little child, no matter how difficult it is, in certain things, and that it doesn't always have to end so badly.

So, parents and teachers... watch this movie!

4.0*

Good movie and good actors. This could bother me. The problems that teenagers can experience. Fun, educational movie. Nothing wrong with that.
