It's occurring to me that filming these was probably a pretty bizarre experience for Ava Michelle who plays the main character, simply because her height (and therefore her character's height) is so central to the plot; I feel like most movies (especially ones that are works of fiction) don't situate an actor so closely to their role if you get what I'm trying to say
Edit: To clarify somewhat, consider how even method actors are most often up ultimately unable to live the experiences of their characters in a practical sense. But this movie is about being a tall teenage girl, which Michelle obviously experienced herself on a daily basis, until very recently, for half her life.
Wasn't there that ridiculous Netflix show called Tall Girl? Central premise was that main character was tall and a girl and that made her life hard.
It was a movie (that also has a sequel lol)
