Hulu's Greta Thunberg documentary, titled 'I Am Greta,' had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival. Read the review here

’s film is reasonably thorough, and sometimes rousing, amply showcasing Thunberg’s candid gifts as a truth-to-power speaker. Yet as a portrait of the girl behind the cause, it’s cautious and rarely illuminating, speckled with moments of domestic intimacy that nonetheless feel carefully vetted.

Along the way, we’re shown celebrity encounters with the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Emmanuel Macron and former British House of Commons speaker John Bercow, all of whom nod, smile and congratulate Thunberg on her drive and principles. It’s clear these are glib publicity obligations rather than true meetings of minds, and “I Am Greta” is most interesting when its young subject calls out such formalities.
