This is SO MUCH more relatable than i want to admit! The emotions in this film feel raw and real, some subplots feel unresolved, like what happens with the mom, but there's something undeniable about it. The friendship between Remy and Arletta feels undeniably authentic, their chemistry on-screen palpable. Set against the tumultuous landscape of adolescence, it does well at capturing the essence of growing pains and the importance of friendship in navigating life's challenges. It's messy and imperfect, but so is growing up. I hope this cast works together again, i think they all did a great job.

I am a big fan of the filmmaking duo, Micaela Wittman and Arthur de Larroche. I loved their last movie, Clairevoyant, a comedy mockumentary, very different from Remy & Arletta. This movie is a coming of age drama about two teen girls and their budding relationship, alongside Remy's turbulent family life. Her mom is abusive and an alcoholic/drug addict. It's not an upbeat story, but it's very well acted and entertaining. It kind of feels like a memory of what it's like to be that age and have your best friend be your whole entire world. If you like independent films, or dramas, or relatable true to life stories, definitely give Remy & Arletta a watch. Micaela and Arthur have a big future ahead of them.

. While the film occasionally falls into familiar tropes of the coming-of-age genre, its genuine heart and captivating performances elevate it above cliché. By the time the credits roll, 'Remy & Arletta' leaves a lasting impression, reminding viewers of the enduring power of human connection and the resilience of the human spirit. 'Remy & Arletta' is a gem of independent cinema, offering a refreshingly authentic take on the temporary teenage years.
