Maddie Ziegler and Jenna Ortega in The Fallout (2021)

Bolstered by new friendships forged under sudden and tragic circumstances, high schooler Vada begins to reinvent herself, while re-evaluating her relationships with her family, friends and her view of the world. Moving away from her comfortable family routine, she starts taking chances with a series of quicksilver decisions that test her own boundaries and push her in new directions. As she spends more time with Mia, they grow closer, and Vada slowly redefines herself through their shared experiences, leading her further away from that day and closer to living her life in the now.

Vada Cavell: Fuck up so many lives!
Vada Cavell: Then I think I should be grateful to be alive.
Vada Cavell: I feel like, I don't know, maybe there's some weird fucked up reason why I made it and other people didn't.

Vada Cavell: None of us should've died.

Strong movie

I am impressed by the actors and the characters they play in this movie. They feel very real.

This is a really really good, strong, and emotionally movie.

You dont see the violence, but you hear it, and you feel it together with the characters.

I cant forget the actors. They do a really good job in this one.
