Our take

Dìdi is a summer-before-high-school story about a 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy. You get constant f-word language among kids, name-calling, kissing videos, and a hashish mention. The hero is 13. The language is not. Older teens and adults

Uplifting themes

A 13-year-old fumbles toward friends and a family that still shows up

Story (may spoil tone)

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.

Talk after watching

  • Kids are cruel for status. What would you want your kid to do in that group chat?
  • The film lets a 13-year-old swear like an adult. Did that feel true or just loud?
