.k_marie_smith reviews LittleAmerica Season 2, AppleTV+'s anthology series which again soulfully speaks to big emotions:
Stories of immigration to the United States must punch through cliche to feel real. The task is steep. So many stereotypes seep into these stories: pressure to tell tales of trauma porn, strict parents, homesickness, and a decisive moment of victory. Even more challenging for writers is balancing the truth within some of these cliches, while honoring the greater complexity of the overarching story.
A bustling Somali restaurant, a panic attack in a car dealership bathroom, impending collapse during a state fair: all of these heightened moments of stress strike harder and sell the embodied reality of these personal narratives. While pleasurable to consume, these episodes manage to force the viewer into empathy.
