About this listen
This week, we're talking about three outstanding coming-of-age stories that capture the highs, lows, and messy in-betweens of growing up.
First up, is The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012), Stephen Chbosky's heartfelt look at friendship, trauma, and finding your place in the world.
Then we move to Catherine Hardwicke's Thirteen (2003), a raw and unflinching portrait of adolescence and rebellion.
And finally, we dive into Dídí (2024), Sean Wang's semi-autobiographical debut that beautifully balances humor, identity, and the awkwardness of early teenage years.
Each film captures the heartbreak and the hope of finding out who you are on the way to becoming your true self.
