HOW TO HAVE SEX
Type: dramatic ✦✦✦
Direction: Molly Manning Walker. With Anna Antoniades, Mia McKenna-Bruce, Lara Peake
The holiday after graduation of three young British people, determined to drink (a lot), dance, have fun and do what the title of the film suggests. Tara, Em and Skye are 16 years old and the excitement of finding themselves free and alone in Crete is uncontrollable.
Molly Manning Walker, winner of the Un certain regard award at the last Cannes Film Festival, stands one step away from her heroines and towards Tara (Mia McKenna-Bruce, very good), determined to lose her virginity and bridge the gap that separates her from her friendsmanages to be intimate, without being indiscreet.
Mia McKenna-Bruce and Shaun Thomas in “How to Have Sex”
Desire, consent, rites of passage, disillusionment: gray areas that the film explores frankly. The best film about and for “young people” around.
