Turtles All the Way Down 2024

Based on the 2017 novel by John Green, the 2024 film Turtles All the Way Down is a sensitive coming-of-age drama that follows 16-year-old Aza Holmes as she navigates high school while living with severe Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). The plot is set in motion when Aza's adventurous best friend, Daisy, convinces her to investigate the mysterious disappearance of local billionaire Russell Pickett to claim a $\$100,000$ reward. This search leads Aza to reconnect with the billionaire’s son and her childhood crush, Davis Pickett; however, as their romance develops, the film shifts focus from the mystery to an intimate exploration of Aza's internal "thought spirals" and her fear of the human microbiome. After a series of mental health crises—including a breakdown involving the ingestion of hand sanitizer and a harrowing car accident—Aza eventually reconciles with Daisy and finds a path toward self-acceptance, realizing that while her condition may not be "cured," she can still live a fulfilling and loved life. The film features a central cast led by Isabela Merced as Aza Holmes, Cree Cicchino as her best friend Daisy, and Felix Mallard as Davis Pickett, with supporting performances by Judy Reyes as Aza's mother, Poorna Jagannathan as Dr. Singh, and Maliq Johnson as Mychal.Directed by Hannah Marks, the production was released as a streaming original on May 2, 2024. Worldwide, the film is distributed primarily through Max (formerly HBO Max) in the United States, Latin America, and parts of Europe, while it is available on Crave in Canada, BINGE and Foxtel in Australia, and Sky Atlantic or NOW TV in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
