I loved this movie! I had read the book prior which gave more insight into the movie storyline.I understand how a viewer might find it somewhat confusing initially. I was curious regarding the backdrop of the marsh and how Kya would be portrayed. I was pleasantly surprised at how well both were depicted.tThis was a love story, a coming of age story, and an excellent portrayal of society’s harsh judgment on those marginalized individuals among us. We see it played out frequently in our lives today. I can’t stop thinking about this movie so much so that I’m going to reread the book. One of my favorites ! Highly recommended.
