Brief thoughts on MY SUMMER WITH IRENE (2024) Berlin 2024


In 1997 two young girls recovering from cancer skip out on a retreat and decide to spend the summer together on an island near Sicily.

This is coming of age film  is a good look at two young woman trying to figure out the world and themselves. It's a nice low key tale about trying to figure out the future when you can't be certain that you are going to have one. 

I really liked this film a great deal. While the basic plot is one we have seen before the combination unforced turns and two characters that are not your typical screen heroines makes this something special. 

This definitely worth your time.
