100 Medos

An adorable movie that so many can relate with for those who suffer from anxiety. I found myself smiling at so many scenes. From the beautiful coastal town that they live in, to the friendships she has made. Does Danio follow her to Rome? We need a Part 2!! Would love to see a follow up with Danio and Massimo. Does she go back to school? This actress reminds me so much of Natalie Wood. She must get that alot. There were so many scenes that were so relatable. As someone who suffers from anxiety, I completely understood what she was feeling. There need to be more movies like this one that breaks the stigma of mental health and remind us how we're all wanting love and friendships too. Just a bit harder for some of us. 10/10 review.

To be honest, it was only after watching the entire movie that I truly understood the meaning of the film's title, 'Jumping from High Places.' Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I grasped that, as someone who has gone through adolescence, entered the workforce, and interacted with all sorts of people, the space between the unknown and vulnerability can often be seen as being distant or 'high and mighty' when viewed from an outsider's perspective. That's what 'High Places' means to me. And 'Jumping' represents the director's message, conveyed through Federica Torchetti's various life experiences, that it's all about 'commitment.' Regardless of regrets or missed opportunities, true feelings and personal aspirations can only be realized through full commitment. (Especially with that handsome actor Cristiano in the latter part of the movie.) I would recommend this indie film to every teenager out there.
