If anyone can tell me what the plot of this film is I will revoke this poor review.
A few things that got on my nerves:
1. The films 'soundtrack' seemed to be the same 2 songs on loop. They didn't seem to fit with the narrative at all and made it feel long and slow.
2. The costuming was weird. Why was the mom dressed more fashionably than the main character? She is suppose to be 17 or 18 so why is she dressed like a 35 year old? Its not huge but it did bother me.
3. The script was really awkward. I could blame the actors but it seemed like they all as good as they could with the script provided. Some of the plot points felt random (the momentary love story, the older lady plot line, her art dreams going out the window , the random finale with the llamas. I thought for a minute that she got another job working out at a ranch or something. It felt out of place.)
I hope everyone involved in this felt is proud but I can't recommend it to anyone but quite religious people that want to show their children a narrative written by a young person.
All in all if this was written and directed by a 40 year old I would give it 1 star. Due to the directors apparent youth I gave it a 5/10.
