I was born the same year Frybread Face and Me takes place, but that’s not the only reason I connected with its uplifting story about a young boy making the most of his summer vacation. No, he’s not snorkeling in the Bahamas or shooting archery with his classmates at day camp; California native Benny (Keir Tallman) is dumped at the Arizona ranch belonging to his grandma, who doesn’t speak English. Scary at first, but we can’t help but cheer for Benny as he ultimately makes the most of this experience.

With the acclaimed Taika Waititi on board as executive producer, plus the backing of Ava DuVernay’s company ARRAY, Frybread Face and Me is yet another wonderful coming-of-age feature to hit Netflix.
