Cerise

2015 · 90 min

A wry, bittersweet coming-of-age comedy that balances teenage attitude with political upheaval, feeling both intimate and unexpectedly timely.

Overview
Cerise is fourteen years old but she looks twenty. Cerise grew up on the outskirts, but now she's exiled to Ukraine.

Cerise has only ever thought about herself and now she finds herself in the middle of a revolution.
