Our take

Hazy with an atmosphere of delicate mystery, this impressive debut dives into a summer that is both the prologue to adulthood and its exhilarating deferral. Unfurling with fluid cinematography that hints at a subtle undertow of darkness, this coming-of-age film is authentic and achingly bittersweet.
