Synopsis
Julie is a rich, cynical patient in a mental health clinic. She has a “do nothing” manifesto: she doesn’t study, work, or have any friends. Meanwhile, Agnes is a young mother who doesn’t get the whole “mother” thing. When the two wild spirits meet in the clinic, they start an explosive rebellion.
Editorial
Flickering with the torment of an anhedonic protagonist, Elisa Mishto’s first feature-length fiction begins in the dwindling cinders of a life, then blazes into fierce comic light. Forged out of an aversion to societal norms, friendship between two women is a beacon of hope in this surprising film.
