“A nuanced portrait of the Mountain West. TEENHOOD is more than just a coming-of-age story; it’s a lesson in the power and importance of parental love. TEENHOOD is more than just Asian representation; it’s an examination of the common thread in our nature that runs deeper than just our face and skin.“
