My First Film review charismatic new star beefs up audacious grad school-style project
Briefly

Odessa Young brings charisma to this story about filmmaking, where her character, Vita, creates a film that parallels her own life yet diverges significantly.
The film's execution reflects the chaotic nature of independent filmmaking, marked by 'near-accidents' and a lack of professionalism, showcasing the struggles of Vita's crew.
Themes of pregnancy and artistic creation are intertwined throughout the film, culminating in a mime-portrayed abortion scene that leaves a lasting impression.
The film manages to balance spontaneity and depth, steering away from being self-indulgent by focusing on Vita's fictional creation in contrast to her real life.
