Yung (2018)

Yung: Directed by Henning Gronkowski. With Janaina Liesenfeld, Emily Lau, Joy Grant, Abbie Dutton. YUNG is a trip following four young girls into the pulsating and hedonistic subculture of modern day Berlin. But above all, it’s a pure, rough and authentic pic about friendship.

“This is quite the portrayal (a bleak one) of how some young adults (or rather teenagers) grow up. How they feel and what goals they have or havenu0026#39;t. Oh and itu0026#39;s mainly girls – which was needed since most movies do concentrate on how boys grow and everything else male. So to get a perspective of future women is a nice feat.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt doesnu0026#39;t mean that all girls are like that or had an upbringing like that. And apart from the sex (quite strong, even if not explicit can give some people anxiety if they get upset seeing those) and drug consuming, this is about friendship, about a different (probably) view to life than the viewer of this. Raw and almost like a documentary – that is what u0026quot;realu0026quot; should be like, even if it upsets people … the acting is more than incredible, even when you may not be entirely sympathetic to the characters or everything they do”
