Osman Cerfon’s ‘Aaaah!’ Is A Spot-On Depiction Of Youth

Osman Cerfon’s spot-on depiction of youth arrives online just in time.

What more can be said beyond what Aaaah! so hilariously and precisely captures — the relentless seesaw of youthful emotion? Yet, beyond its beautifully paced and intricately designed exploration of adolescence, the film resonates on a deeper level, mirroring the collective anxieties of our time. In an era of political and social uncertainty, its raw energy and cathartic release feel more relevant than ever.

So sit back, take it all in, and maybe even let out a scream of your own.

Cerfon is a French animation director. After studying graphic design and training at Beaux-Arts d’Épinal, he graduated from La Poudrière, where he directed Tête-à-tête.
