About This Movie

Crying on Command is an interesting dive into the lives of teens in Roseville, California, where the carefree vibe oozes from every frame. The documentary captures a night of what seems like aimless degenerate fun, but beneath that surface, there’s a rawness—almost a haunting sense of youth lost in distraction. The pacing shifts as we follow these teenagers, and you can feel the energy change throughout the night. It’s like a time capsule, showcasing the reckless abandon of adolescence. The performances feel genuine, unfiltered, which adds to its distinctiveness. There’s really no polish here, just real life. It’s a reminder of those fleeting moments that many might connect with—if you can look past the chaos.
