Review of Wetlands

Wetlands (2013)

pushing the envelop
5 February 2017
Helen is a rebellious teen skateboarder. She is deliberately unhygienic to rebel against her unstable mother. Her parents are divorced. Her mother has had many men and as many religions. Her father hurts her unintentionally. Her best friend Corinna often makes poor choices in boys. She accidentally cut herself while shaving causing an anal fissure. Her hospitalization gives her an idea to reunite her parents and then she falls for nurse Robin.

This German film pushes the sexual envelop with some aggressive subject matters. It doesn't shy away and lead actress Carla Juri is all too happy to push. Some of it is funny and a lot of it is shocking. If it doesn't offend, this movie actually delivers a compelling original character. However, I bet many would be offended or at least find some of this off-putting.
