Fans accused Netflix of ‘sexualising girls’ in the ‘coming-of-age’ movie
Further to this, it appeared Netflix had altered the synopsis of the film, further angering critics.
While it now reads: ‘Eleven-year-old Amy starts to revel against her conservative family’s traditions when she becomes fascinated with a free-spirited dance crew.’, Netflix said: ‘This was not an accurate representation of the film so the image and description has been updated.
‘It is not a movie made to cater to paedophiles but a well researched movie about girls growing up while navigating hyper sexualized social media culture as well as the various influences from French and immigrant cultures.’
