Coming of age story that focuses on how a kid uses fantastical lore to try to deal with grief? I'm already sold. Sure, this follows a lot of common beats, but it's executed well and does enough to bring you into Barbara's world. You feel for Barbara and her struggles as an outsider, and by the time you reach the climax, it hits you like a ton of bricks as she finally allows herself to deal with what she's truly been afraid of. Due to how this was in and out of theaters pretty quick, I didn't expect a lot, but it is totally worth a watch.
