Shy Los Angeles high-school student AJ falls head over heels for Kristen, described as radiant, beautiful and popular, and as Kristen introduces him to the world of surfing, their love blossoms amid a close-knit community and the confectionery pink and blue skies of California's coast. Their bond deepens even as Kristen's illness grows increasingly severe, testing the young couple's connection against the fragility of time, in this adaptation of illustrator AJ Dungo's acclaimed, multi-prized graphic novel about love, loss and memory.
Review:
A visually gorgeous animated romance that finds real tenderness in its central love story, its confectionery visual palette carrying genuine emotional weight as illness reshapes the couple's shared world.
