A beautiful movie about growing up. The picture can easily be attributed to those whose title and annotation quite sharply contrast with what was ultimately shown. Philophobia suggested that the film would introduce me to a character who is afraid of his feelings or their manifestation to people or the world. The annotation assured that here is a story about the fact that in order to become a good writer, you need to learn a lot from your own experience. Controversial, but catchy. Anyway, I was interested in both. In fact, I received the third, but in principle was not disappointed.
The meaning of the name, as well as the idea of the annotation, appear here extremely tangential. The movie is really about growing up. About how a teenager, graduating from school, forms a view of life, certain moral guidelines with which he will go to the big world. About how scary it is to enter this world, to take responsibility for your actions and your future, to separate from your parents, to learn to choose the right people with whom you will keep up. Falling in love for the first time and learning how to do it. Look deeper by reading between the lines rather than gliding your eyes across the surface. Understand how people are tripled, what and why they hide, what they fear, what they dream about.
For the teenage film "Philophobia" turned out very smart. There is a lot of philosophy of life, a minimum of vulgarity and stupidity, and a very correct ending. The picture can certainly be recommended for viewing by teenagers, including parents. They, too, will find something for themselves, will begin to understand their children better, will remember themselves at their age, which may help them to build relationships in the future. The film turned out to be very colorful, the play of young actors is more than convincing, and you do not want to break away from the screen during the entire viewing.
