The acclaimed new drama from Camera d’Or-winning writer/director Claire Burger

Fanny is looking for a fresh start when she arrives by train from Strasbourg as part of a foreign exchange program to stay at the home of her pen pal, Lena and her single mother. She encounters a household in flux. The girls don’t immediately hit it off; Fanny is shy and withdrawn, whereas the outspoken and larger-than-life Lena exudes confidence and is eager to engage in political activism. Fanny is quickly enthralled by Lena and soon draws her in.

The teens quickly develop a strong, life-changing bond, encouraging one another’s rebellious streaks in increasingly provocative ways.

Director: Claire Burger, Germany/France, 2024, 105 minutes, German and French with English Subtitles, Unclassified 15+
