"Eighth grade" as is no corny — about the difficult life of a teenager. After graduating from high school and preparing to enroll in a senior, Kayla has about this the most contradictory emotions. As and many other, in General. School for her, & exist — a constant stress. She plump a few spotty among classmates, the reputation of a demure, lives entirely without friends and one father — in combined with a thousand other little things can make the life of the student intolerable. All that we saw once, movie such a synopsis barely is bound to attract us. However, there is in him a wonderful and unvarnished sincerity with which the Director Bo Burnham introduces his character to the viewer.
Kyle — from the generation where already despise Facebook, but actively use Instagram. Headphones, telephone and Mac — here is her loyal friends, providing the girl a disservice. So confident in the network, leading even his own video blog, where gives advice, it cannot be alive and natural out there, "outside", pamira from horror of shame every time is in the unusual situation. As and all the youth of today, Kayla saucy — but only the comfort zone, full of reflections — but only alone, which neither in anything other than a simple "Yes", "type" and"cool" flow of feelings not result. Director with a painful and disappointing truth shows us the reality. The one where the ability to establish contact and to be yourself is becoming less attainable. But even brutally simplified communication, ignorance of itself, and around the world leave a place of empathy and sincerity. With regard to the characters of the Burnham — almost inevitable.
Touching and ridiculous love of the father, attempts to be cute, fun and all, wanting to have a normal and happy life for themselves, the constant change of anxieties, fears, to the death of the embarrassing circumstances — all served as is. The Director does not flirts with us paints a picture of idealized existence, young people — free and immediate. School here is not like which you spend the best days of their lives. Modern romance, friendship — samples of something so the poor, awkward and forced that I want to turn them for truth is not recognize. But it it is, in all its glory. Disarmingly imperfect and obvious — and relaxed. The question is that do it — the task for the film is more serious and by Burnham't put.
