7/10 A unique production that reflects Jandy Nelson's world and magical realism. Nature itself is one of the main protagonists (especially the Redwoods). The playful camera work was great - same goes for the editing and acting. The overcrowded color palette may be too much for some but for others an eye-feast. It was a smart choice to add comic relief throughout the movie as well as weird fairytale-like animal sounds.

The only thing missing was the title quote from Nelson's book! Why was that?
