Film Information

In 2008, during the last month of summer before high school begins, an impressionable 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy learns what his family can’t teach him: how to skate, how to flirt, and how to love your mom. A semi-autobiographical love letter to teenage angst that’s also slyly self-critical, Dìdi is a deeply moving personal statement by writer-director Sean Wang.

Reviews

“Dìdi isn’t just a good coming-of-age movie or a great coming-of-age movie. Dìdi is unquestionably one of the most poignant and very best movies of the year.”

Kristy Puchko
Mashable

“A funny, heartfelt movie, tapping into the audience’s latent memories as well as our great relief at no longer being 13.”

Alissa Wilkinson
New York Times

“A superb coming-of-age saga that lives in the intersection of youthful euphoria, despair, insecurity, irresponsibility, and fearlessness.”

Nick Schager
The Daily Beast
