About This Movie

Plus grandir is an interesting piece from '85 that explores the delicate balance between childhood and adulthood. The film follows a young girl who resists the pressures to grow up. It has this dreamy, almost ethereal quality with its music-driven narrative that complements the themes of innocence and nostalgia. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing viewers to really soak in the atmosphere. I think it’s the practical effects, combined with the musical elements, that give it a unique charm. The performances are sincere, capturing that awkwardness of youth beautifully, but it’s the overall tone that lingers with you. It’s a curious watch for anyone interested in how films from this era handled such themes.
