Mishka

Mishka is a girl dealing with a problem no thirteen-year-old should have to face. Watching her struggle, with no support from anyone, not even someone to talk with, is heart-rending.

Filmed in Canada with age-appropriate actress Matia Jackett as the lead, "Mishka" shows us excellent acting throughout. The result is a hyper-realistic stark contrast between Mishka's horrible situation and the happy, normal lives of her friends. The uneasy mood is enhanced by restrained dialog between main characters, and the technical production of this short movie is excellent, on a par with any feature-length film.

About the ending, I'll only say that it is believable, but could have used some explanation or foreshadowing.

"Mishka" is not even slightly enjoyable, in the usual sense of the word, but it's highly worthwhile.

The movie was 10/10 good to watch and tells a story about teen pregnancy that's been happening everywhere and i love watching this film and learning something from the story as well.
