Many of us can say we’ve been there, our first crush ripping our heart in pieces. Our mindset going in a million different directions making you feel lonely and isolated. This film is not necessarily a film of about romance, more sexual discovery from a young woman perspective. Those experiences maybe sexual and you may think they are strange, at first but as we get older they are normal.
