NEW HAMPSHIRE FILM FESTIVAL AUDIENCE CHOICE – NARRATIVE
A surprisingly sexy, darkly funny emotional rollercoaster…
In this light-and-dark comedy, June and her Persian-British mom Lela take a trip to the romantic Azores islands for a grief anniversary, with contrasting ways of coping. A hot philosophical surfer takes them on a tour as we surf the waves of life, loss, flirting… an unforgettable ride. In her award-winning debut feature, director Lilian T. Mehrel brilliantly transforms grief, desire, and human connection into something electric, introducing a visionary new voice.
