Plot
It is about a girl's everyday life at the end of her school days, trying to find a way into society and her own life.
Sinekatalog’s take
A low-key portrait of a teenage girl at the end of school, groping toward adulthood. Realist and unhurried, it gives priority to everyday texture over plot, and is suited to fans of quiet coming-of-age cinema.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
