Drama

VIBE

This film offers a tender, yet anxious, exploration of burgeoning female friendship and the awkward dance of self-discovery. It's an introspective journey into the complexities of identity, belonging, and the quiet desperation of wanting to be seen and accepted, all wrapped in a naturalistic, character-focused European sensibility.
