Love is All You Need? tells the story of Ashley, a young teen who is raised by the 'picture perfect all-American family' in the suburbs of California - with two moms, two grandpas, two uncles, and a little brother. But Ashley has a problem - she has a crush on a boy at school, which is against everything this world has ever taught her. (Verleiher-Text)

Despite some plotholes, the inverted main theme has precisely the impact it should have. In the first ten minutes, I felt foreign, sad, and inexplicably rejected as the main character. That cautious desire, which circumstances smother from the start, was simply within me at that moment. However, even though the form continues to its maximum until the end, the second half is too purposefully intensified and is mostly just about delivering the expected conclusion with the biggest slap in the face. And at this running time, that doesn't quite work. The full-length version will either quickly drown in simple morality or show me a brilliant generational statement. I'm already looking forward to finding out which it will be.

Es ist völlig in Ordnung, wenn diese Idee so viel Aufmerksamkeit erregt und der Zuschauer am Ende der Reise versteht, dass er es nicht mit einem umgekehrten Phänomen zu tun hat, sondern mit einem viel einfacheren und wichtigeren Problem, nämlich Mobbing. Überraschenderweise. Denn wenn man die Kindheit nicht überlebt, hat es keinen Sinn, sich mit den Problemen des Lebens als Erwachsener zu beschäftigen.
