About as feminist as Girls. The main character has zero agency being pushed around, made fun of and bullied by a man who is cheating on his wife and daughter, by her parents, and other community members - yet the movie is trying to convince us that she is a young feminist in the field of Gender Studies... This is really not the portrayal of feminism we need. Pretending to show the female character's perspective being pushed around by men…
A bit sick of self-loathing as an analogy for being trans... frustrating to watch bc of all the suffering and escapism where the main character is merely a passive pebble in a pre-made narrative without taking any agency of their own.
