The Freedom film, which came out in 2024, is an inspiring coming-of-age film that depicts the story of four teenagers who embark on a road trip to find themselves and escape from their monotonous lives. The movie is under the directorial efforts of Jonah Green and has received positive praise about its representation of being young and friendship, and finding oneself.
The lives of each protagonist constantly poses problems regardless of whether it’s dealing with pressure from family members, mental health problems, issues of identity, or the unimaginable feeling of being divorced from one’s solitary little hometown. Across the road they come across innumerable people and different realities that require them to go deeper in themselves and answer questions about their faith, the choices they make, and the outlook they hold.
Young adults have been able to respond well to Freedom due to the honest characters and basic story which is sad yet beautiful. With amazing sceneries and music accompanying every step of the way, the film tries to understand the real quest in searching of freedom and understanding oneself.
