Teenage
Description
Teenagers didn't always exist. They had to be invented. As the cultural landscape around the world was thrown into turmoil during the industrial revolution, and with a chasm erupting between adults and youth, the concept of a new generation took shape. Whether in America, England, or Germany, whether party-crazed Flappers or hip Swing Kids, zealous Nazi Youth or frenzied Sub-Debs, it didn't matter-this was a new idea of youth. They were all "Teenagers." A hypnotic rumination on the genesis of youth culture from the end of the 19th century to the first half of the 20th, this documentary is a living collage of rare archival material, filmed portraits, and diary entries read by actors Jena Malone, Ben Whishaw, and others.
