My Life as a Zucchini (2016)
My Life as a Zucchini (2016) is an animated French-Swiss film that tells the story of a young boy named Zucchini who is sent to a foster home after his mother’s death. The movie is a heartwarming and touching story of Zucchini’s journey to find a family and a place to belong.
Despite its PG rating, the movie contains some sexual moments that may be inappropriate for younger viewers. One of the most notable sexual moments in the movie is when Zucchini’s foster mother, Madame Souza, catches him and his friend, Simon, in a compromising position. The two boys are seen in bed together, and Madame Souza is understandably shocked and embarrassed. She quickly scolds the boys and sends them to their rooms.
Another sexual moment in the movie is when Zucchini’s foster brother, Raymond, is caught masturbating in his bedroom. This scene is brief and not overly graphic, but it is still a bit uncomfortable to watch.
The movie also contains some mild sexual innuendos. For example, when Zucchini and Simon are discussing their future plans, Simon jokes that he will become a “professional lover” when he grows up. This is meant to be a humorous moment, but it still contains a hint of sexual innuendo.
Overall, My Life as a Zucchini is a touching and heartfelt movie that contains some sexual moments that may be inappropriate for younger viewers. Parents should be aware of these moments before allowing their children to watch the movie.
