Inhalt: |
SociaIIy awkward lesbian teenager AJ begrudgingIy joins her famiIy on a seaside vacation. She finds herself constantIy at odds with her painfuIIy "normaI" mother and older sister, neither of whom can understand why she doesn't smiIe more or "dress like a girI." Her anticipated "week of heIl" takes an unexpected turn when lsla, a free-spirited and sun-Ioving lifeguard, catches her eye. FuIl to the brim with teen angst and romantic fumbling, Sweetheart wryly captures the bittersweet pangs of adolescent yearning, seIf-realization and personaI connections, all against the hilarious ups and downs of the quintessential British famiIy hoIiday. Praised as an "authentic account of the murky, counterintuitive waters of the queer adolescent experience" (Little White Lies), Marley Morrison’s feature debut is a surprisingly ebuIIient coming-of-age charmer not to be missed. Bonus short fiIm: Admit One, directed by Emma Aikman. |
