Eva Mendes steals the show as the single mother of the titular character in this sweet coming-of-age story

When her daughter Ansiedad decides to fast-track her adolescence straight into adulthood, she has no idea what she’s let herself in for, and all too soon she comes to the realisation that sometimes growing up means acting your age. Laugh-out-loud funny and heart-warmingly touching in equal measure, this is one film we were convinced we wouldn’t like. But guess what? We did.
