See: trailer of new Netflix movie Fakes

Mark September 2 in your calendar, because a delicious new Netflix addition will be online then. It's called Fakes and it's about two seventeen-year-old friends who start a business in fake IDs. I grew up in a Netherlands where you only had to be sixteen to buy alcohol, so I (thankfully) don't have much experience with fake IDs. I also grew up in a Netherlands where a fake birth date on a CJP pass was enough to take a bottle of Canei from the supermarket (sorry mom and dad) when I was still under sixteen.
But in America, of course, you have to wait until you're 21, and I can imagine that not everyone is looking forward to that. Neither are Zoe (Emilija Baranac) and Rebecca Li (Jennifer Tong), who started a side business in fake IDs and suddenly have more money to spend than they ever thought possible.
So with that money, they move to a penthouse in downtown Vancouver (talk about #lifegoals at seventeen), but from that moment on, everything actually goes wrong: the police are after them and they are in deep trouble. Goodbye money, goodbye golden business, goodbye fake IDs.
Actress Jennifer Tong tells Bustle about the movie: ‘What the audience can expect and look forward to is that all the sh*t is exaggerated. It's as much comedy as it is drama, it's heartwarming and heartbreaking and above all very fun.’
Okay, okay, you got me. I'm going to watch this on September 2.
