  Pluton)\ndir. Myriam Verreault/Henry Bernadet\n2008, color, digital, 
 95 min., Canada, French with English subtitles\n\nRecommended for ages
  14 to adult\n\nWest of Pluto is a snapshot, a day in the life in a sm
 all cul-de-sac of suburban Quebec—a seemingly random corner of the w
 orld, where ten suburban teens start pretentious garage bands, give cl
 ass presentations, fall in and out of love, score pot, fight with pare
 nts, throw house parties that spiral out of control, and go through th
 e quintessential experiences that make adolescence a churning mix of a
 wkwardness, friendship, petty cruelty, and larger than life emotions. 
 This subtle, brilliantly constructed film paints a dead-on, unfiltered
  portrait of the high-school experience.\nWest of Pluto’s gripping r
 ealism and young non-professional cast draw comparisons to the teen dr
 amas of Gus van Sant and Larry Clark. But West of Pluto has appeal for
  young audiences as well as adults and implicitly asks the question: w
 hat is a film for young people anyway? Zac Efron and Miley Cyrus notwi
 thstanding, the lives of most teenagers would be rated R—and by this
  standard young people are restricted from viewing realistic depiction
 s of their own experience. West of Pluto gives us just that, and with 
 unsurpassed emotional honesty. Beginning in an almost documentary styl
 e, the film builds into a tense and compelling drama, with moments of 
 exuberance, turmoil, and heart-wrenching pathos. The first-time direct
 ors worked with the 15- and 16-year-old non-professional actors for si
 x months prior to shooting and the performers’ mix of improvised and
  scripted dialogue creates an authentic and richly nuanced realism tha
 t is so natural it doesn’t seem like acting at all. The result is a 
 genuinely moving, humorous, highly believable work of cinema that cuts
  to the heart of this intense, fascinating time of life when people st
 ruggle to relate with others and try to make sense of the absurdity of
  the world they inhabit.\n\n\n\n\n\nCLICK ON IMAGE BELOW FOR WEBSITE A
