A shy teenager caves to pressure and admits to a tryst with an older crush - except it never actually happened, sending a much anticipated school excursion into chaos.
During a game of truth or dare, soft-spoken Bosnian teen Iman (Asja Zara Lagumdžija, Best Performance winner, Marrakech FF) confirms a rumour she slept with an older crush – even though it isn’t true. The seemingly harmless white lie soon snowballs into more compulsive fibbing, threatening Iman’s closest relationships and a buzzy upcoming excursion. Director Una Gunjak explores this hotbed of patriarchal double standards and peer pressure through a nuanced and empathetic female lens. Assisted by DOP Matthias Pilz’s crisp handheld cinematography, this carefully observed debut captures the vibrant intensity of being young, impulsive, and fumbling your way through life.
Limited seats are available for patrons requiring access for wheelchairs, low vision and hearing loop. Please contact our ticketing team directly on 1300 733 733 or tickets@sff.org.au to complete your booking.
