### Plot
Agnes idolizes her older sister Julia, who has everything Agnes dreams of: she is the coolest person in school, the center of every party, and she is dating Noel.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/watch-the-trailer-for-a-part-of-you-felicia-maxime-edvin-ryding-and-zara) When Julia is killed in a car crash, Agnes's world is turned upside down and she is forced to reinvent herself, suddenly approaching everything she ever wanted, at a cost.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/watch-the-trailer-for-a-part-of-you-felicia-maxime-edvin-ryding-and-zara) • [2](https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/a-part-of-you) Netflix describes the film as an emotional, bittersweet coming-of-age drama about those left behind, and as a story about life and death that portrays being 17 and feeling like your heart is about to burst from your chest.[7](https://www.netflix.com/title/81660270) • [1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/watch-the-trailer-for-a-part-of-you-felicia-maxime-edvin-ryding-and-zara) Common Sense Media notes that Agnes deals with her negative emotions by drinking, acting out, and even taking on a version of the deceased sister's identity.[2](https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/a-part-of-you)

Critics generally praised the performances while dividing on the storytelling. John Serba of Decider wrote that Maxime's performance is a boon, helping the film avoid enough of the cliché pitfalls of weepies and coming-of-age dramas to warrant a watch.[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/a_part_of_you) Jennifer Green of Common Sense Media described a nuanced script built around moments and emotions rather than major events or dialogues.[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/a_part_of_you) Taylor Gates of Collider gave it 8/10, calling it touching and effective without veering into emotionally manipulative or exploitative territory.[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/a_part_of_you) Jason Flatt of But Why Tho? called it a powerful depiction of a teenager coping with sudden loss but found the movie drawn out and frustrating.[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/a_part_of_you)
Swedish critics were cooler on average. The review aggregator Kritikerna lists seven Swedish reviews, with Filmtopp, Cinetaste, SVT, and Moviezine each giving 3 of 5 and Kulturbloggen 1 of 5; Caroline Hainer of SVT judged atmosphere and cinematography the film's strengths while finding the story a conventionally built drama that struggles to lift off.[10](https://kritikerna.se/film/en-del-av-dig) Swedish outlets Aftonbladet and Expressen highlighted the acting and its portrait of raw, unprocessed grief.[11](https://www.tv.nu/program/en-del-av-dig)
