FUCK YOU - ANETTE SIDOR (2018)

Written and directed by Swedish filmmaker Anette Sidor, Fuck You was nominated at Sundance in 2019 and took awards at several other international film festivals. The short drama follows a day in the life of Stockholm teenager Alice, who shoplifts a strap-on from a sex shop and then uses it to belittle her overbearing boyfriend (but not in an explicit way) in front of his friends. It is a very nicely made short (though the hand-held, focus-losing feel may not appeal to all) with a strong structure and great acting. It does of course tick a lot of festival boxes, being about a group of diverse, delinquent teens and exploring sexual awakening. Subtitles do not seem to be automatically on.
