Wyrm

2019 · 97 min

A quiet, offbeat coming-of-age mood piece that feels lonely and tender, with deadpan absurdity and a soft ache underneath.

Tagline: Looking for love.
Overview: In an alternative 1990s a lonely, dinosaur-obsessed boy named Wyrm struggles to complete a unique school requirement in which students wear electronic collars that detach only upon engaging in their first kiss.
How it feels: Whimsical, melancholic, absurd and earnest. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Coming-of-age, isolation, identity, love
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
