Spect.

Viewers find 'Tomboy' a thought-provoking and sensitive exploration of gender identity through the eyes of a young girl posing as a boy. The film's minimalistic style and the powerful performance of the lead actress are highly praised. However, some found the documentary-like approach a bit jarring and the ending unsatisfactory. The portrayal of childhood innocence intertwined with cruelty adds a poignant layer to the narrative, making it a compelling watch for many.

👍 Powerful lead performance

👎 Documentary style may not appeal to all

J’aime trop l’histoire de ce film mais je hais la fin car elle ne represente pas la réalité

Un film où on perçoit la cruauté naïve des enfants envers ce que les adultes considèrent comme différent.
