All about Lily Chou Chou

Sad and depressing movies from the 2000s about young people facing life's worst challenges. The characters seek to find a place of belonging but everything comes crashing down on them sooner or later.

Both are brutally realistic coming-of-age movies about teens and their experiences, extremely depressing but told in a unique and different way unlike the "usual" bully-themes movies.

Transcending the tag of mere teen angst movie, this heart-wrenching drama explores territory similar to films like "All About Lily Chou-Chou" and "Blue Spring."
