Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Director Inari Niemi insisted on shooting in chronological order so the young actors' real exhaustion would mirror the summer's end.

Cultural

The film quietly documents a generation of Finnish queer women whose stories were erased; adult Mariia's silence mirrors real historical silence.
