“The first film I watched through my fingers this year was not ‘Longlegs’ or ‘The Watchers’—or anything close to a horror movie,” Shirley Li writes. “It was ‘Dìdi’ (弟弟).” https://theatln.tc/u81WFhho
Li describes the coming-of-age indie, about a 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy doing 13-year-old-boy things, as “tender and wonderfully charming.” Set in 2008, the film “re-creates the nascent days of social media in uncannily accurate detail,” Li continues. “Seeing the film’s protagonist, Chris (played by Izaac Wang), log in to AOL Instant Messenger spiked my blood pressure. Watching him … made me cringe in worry for his well-being and, yes, cover my face with my hands.”
“Dìdi” won this year’s Sundance Audience Award, and has drawn comparisons to films such as “Eighth Grade,” “Lady Bird,” and “Mid90s.” “But ‘Dìdi’ sets itself apart by examining more than just the turbulence of growing pains,” Li writes. “It’s also a period piece that understands the flattening effect the internet has on teenagers in particular.” Growing up in an era with so much information available to 13-year-olds, the protagonist easily gets lost.
Chris also navigates being “self-conscious about not being white, despite going to school with other Asian kids,” Li writes. “His friends’ nickname for him is ‘Wang-Wang,’ but when he’s somewhere a Caucasian Chris is present, he becomes ‘Asian Chris.’ At home, meanwhile, he’s just the titular ‘dìdi,’ a Mandarin term of endearment that means ‘little brother.’”
“Dìdi” is semi-autobiographical—scenes in Chris’s bedroom were shot in writer-director Sean Wang’s own childhood bedroom. His real-life grandmother plays Chris’s. “But ‘Dìdi’ feels most authentic when it shows how the chaos of Chris’s internet consumption seeps into his offline life,” Li writes. “By blurring the line between the digital and the analog, the film captures how unmooring it felt to be a teenager in 2008, struggling to separate your social-media self from flesh and blood.”
“It’s a love letter to the world of Top 8s and status updates, an apology to beleaguered parents everywhere,” Li continues at the link. “And, perhaps for Wang, an embrace of his younger self’s disorientation.”
