Excerpt from Flight Deck Film Festival Critique Analysis

★★★★★ Critical Analysis

“When I finished reading Ride of Passage, I couldn’t shake the feeling that Cindy J. Weigand had given me something more than a coming-of-age story. What she offered was a meditation on resilience, friendship, and the way innocence bends—but doesn’t fully break—when it collides with loss, danger, and the often unforgiving realities of rural life. From the very first pages, I was taken by Axelle’s voice, that clear and unflinching narration of a young girl standing at the threshold between childhood adventure and adult responsibility.”
