Poor Girl!

About This Movie

So, 'Poor Girl!' is this quirky little comedy that dives into the chaos of unexpected motherhood. Esther's grappling with her impending thirties and that whole lone-pregnant-woman vibe is pretty relatable in a weird way. The pacing feels a bit off at times, but it kind of adds to the absurdity of her situation. There's this underlying tension with her roommate Gontran, who wants to raise the baby together, but Esther's kind of like, "No thanks." The performances, especially Esther's, really capture that mix of fear and humor. The practical effects are minimal, but the film leans on character-driven moments, which gives it a distinctive feel, you know? It's got a raw, almost indie atmosphere that’s charming in its oddness.
