“In Yelling to the Sky, Victoria Mahoney’s directorial debut, Sweetness O’Hara (Zoë Kravitz) tries on different personas in an attempt to better understand herself, her identity as someone from a biracial household, a gentle person who turns to violence. The film artfully expresses the newness of being a teenager, of being a self, and the consequent ecstasy and misery that comes with it.”
