9 BEAUTIFUL FILMS THAT YOU WOULD FIND RELATABLE IF YOU ARE FEELING LOST IN YOUR 20s

By Ahona

OCTOBER, directed by Shoojit Sircar

If you are struggling to find your approach towards your workspace, towards your friends, well-wishers and your life in general, if you trying to cope with a grief that you can neither communicate nor move past - this might be the film for you.


THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD, directed by Joachim Trier

If you are feeling overwhelmed by your long-term goals, by endless career choices, by the idea of relationships and the way they make you feel if you are feeling overwhelmed by the realisation that you have to now navigate your life, this film might be the one for you.


TINY FURNITURE, directed by Lena Dunham


If you are a fresh graduate who is caught in that vortex of anticipation, uncertainty and ambition between college life and the job market, if you feel like you are slowly becoming an observer of your own life rather than the pilot of it, this might be the film for you.



SOLANIN, directed by Takahiro Miki


If you find yourself yearning for the life you craved for as a kid, if you find that the curve of the road from student to employee is sharp, unpredictable and often humbling, if you cannot find a form of self- expression that feels individualistic and peaceful, this film would seem relatable.



KIKI'S DELIVERY SERVICE, directed by Hayao Miyazaki

Although the protagonist of the film is 13 years old, if you are struggling to find a sustained energy for your artistic expression, struggling to find acceptance and stability, plagued by self-doubt, this might be the film for you.



THE WORLD AFTER US, by Louda Ben Salah


If you are struggling in an impatient economy that does not encourage experimentation and isn't kind to artistic endeavours, if you are feeling a blurry ecstasy as you are just stepping into relationships, you would find this film relatable.



COLUMBUS, directed by Kogonada

If you are feeling torn between your responsibilities within your family and the path that your passion might need you to take, if you need a film that reminds you how to look at the world through the lens of your passion, the slightly younger protagonist of this film might seem very relatable.



FRANCES HA, directed by Noam Baumbach


If you are struggling to balance your finances, dreams, friendships and the general flow of your life, if you are trying to be stable and optimistic through an age where everything in your life needs restructuring, this film and its protagonist might hit home.



THE KING OF STATEN ISLAND, directed by Judd Apatow

If you feel like you have inculcated a more cynical approach towards life, like you are carrying both the weight of past trauma and the responsibility of finding stability and purpose - this might just be the film for you.
