Review: Yelling to the Sky

“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.”
