So, 'Avocado Seed' is an interesting pick from 1998. It really dives into the complexities of identity and belonging. Here’s this Jewish teenager navigating life in a Catholic school, and then he falls for a black Catholic girl. The performances have this raw, heartfelt quality—really draws you into their world. The pacing feels quite deliberate, allowing you to sit with the characters and their struggles. The atmosphere is thick with tension but also has these sweet moments of youthful love. It’s distinctive for its exploration of race and religion, not something you see often, especially in that era. Just a thoughtful piece that lingers a bit.
