Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Emily James made this as part of a challenge to tell complete emotional arcs under 120 seconds, proving runtime is just a number when the writing trusts the audience.
The film quietly normalizes queer relationships without centering conflict around identity — Coral's acceptance of Rudi reads as radical in a genre that usually mines generational queerness for trauma.
