Young & Wild

A horny teenager trapped in a conservative religious family. Using a secret identity, Daniela shares her sexual encounters, frustrations and reflections online, quickly gaining a large following of all ages and sexual orientations. The premise may not be the most original, but Marialy Rivas' feature debut surpasses the obvious conflicts between religion and sexuality, and succeeds in telling an honest and insightful story with a strong heart. Alicia Rodríguez literally goes all the way in the lead role, but it is her heart and mind that get the most exposure, resulting in a film that is one of the best teenage dramas in a long time. ess

Suitable for persons 15 years and older.

Marialy Rivas has made over 200 commercials and corporate films, as well as numerous music videos for Chilean artists. Young and Wild is her feature debut, and won her the World Cinema Screenwriting Award in Sundance this year.
