GirlPicture Review: Sincere Coming-Of-Age Story With Heartfelt Performances
When it comes to coming of age and growing into adulthood, life can get complicated quickly. Trying to find the balance of exploring one’s own identity while experiencing new relationships can lead to complex emotions and outside judgments. In Alli Haapasalo’s latest, the Finnish director examines the power of first love and acceptance and how that can easily define a young woman’s self-image.
As expected in a film about growing into womanhood, Girl Picture adequately captures the clumsiness of growing together and apart in female friendships. Ilona Ahti and Daniela Hakulinen’s script remarkably nails this dynamic through the three leads, Mimmi, Emma, and Rönkkö. Additionally, the story unravels their co-dependencies and unbreakable bonds despite having some conflicts with each other along the way. But this is what makes Girl Picture so special.
