1h hour 46 minutes
“Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret” is a 2023 American coming-of-age comedy-drama film based on the 1970 novel of the same name by Judy Blume. The story follows 11-year-old Margaret Simon as her family moves from New York City to Fartbrook, New Jersey. Margaret’s mother is Christian, her father is Jewish, and she has been raised without an affiliation to either faith. Despite this, she frequently prays to God in her own words, beginning with the iconic phrase, “Are you there God? It’s me, Margaret.” The film explores Margaret’s experiences with new friendships, family life, and the challenges of adolescence
