Exciting news! A film adaptation of John Green’s bestselling novel, Turtles All The Way Down, is coming to MAX. The film is directed by on of my favorite directors, Hannah Marks.

So, the movie delves into the theme of anxiety through its protagonist, 17-year-old Aza Holmes (Isabela Merced). Aza struggles to balance being a good daughter, friend, and student while battling intrusive, obsessive thoughts. So, as she reunites with her childhood crush, Davis, Aza is forced to confront profound questions about love, happiness, friendship, and hope.
