A rising pop star navigates the complexities of fame and industry pressure while preparing for her arena tour debut.
A flashy, tongue-in-cheek hyper-pop mockumentary, The Moment is Charli xcx’s creative reflection on her own meteoric success with brat. Directed and co-written by “360” music video director Aidan Zamiri in his feature debut, the film has a stylishly effortless rhythm and a uniquely self-aware, ironic sense of humor. Charli xcx plays an exaggeratedly manic version of herself, surrounded by a cast of characters that mirror both the friends and foes of the era. Hailey Gates and Alexander Skarsgård personify near-diametrically opposed influences in Charli xcx’s dynamic career; pieces in the grand scheme of brat’s enduring cultural power.
Behind the satire and Charli xcx’s celebrity is an earnest and heartfelt expression of the weight of success, the price of legacy, and the fight to preserve artistic integrity. The Moment is a film for fans and newcomers alike — a lively, current, dazzling capsule of one of the most iconic artists of our time.
This film contains strobe effects.

The Moment ultimately works because it’s less interested in documenting Charli XCX than dismantling her — then rebuilding her on her own terms. It’s a smart, assured, deeply self-aware deconstruction of pop stardom.
★★★★ A wry, sharp and never self-serious take on pop stardom.
A cunning time-capsule-worthy satire that socks it to corporate America and our fan worshipping selves.
A delightful and thoughtful delectation on the eternal struggle between art and commerce.
The Moment takes audiences back to Brat Summer and explores the urge to make a viral moment last as long as possible. It's outrageously hilarious at times as it pokes fun at the music industry
A blistering take-down of the social media-driven celebrity culture.
Like Charli, The Moment is messy, stylish, funny, a little uncomfortable, self-aware, and never boring.
