'Little Trouble Girls', a Slovenian drama directed by Nejc Gazvoda, follows the attraction of a 16-year-old student towards a worker during a school retreat.
'[FILM]' is a delicate film, directed by Urška Djukić, that has marked the 2025 festival season.
A "coming-of-age" drama that explores with sensitivity and depth the ups and downs of adolescence, faith and desire through the eyes of Lucija, a shy sixteen-year-old studying at a Catholic school.
Pushed by her mother, Lucija joins the school's female choir, where she befriends Ana-Marija, a charming classmate whose presence illuminates a new world of sensations.
When the choir travels to a weekend retreat at a rural convent to rehearse intensively, the rigidity of the rules, the silences between prayers and songs, and the solemnity of the environment set in motion a series of experiences that shake Lucija's thoughts.
There, her attraction to a catering worker (an older man who crosses her path) acts as a spark that ignites a mix of curiosity, confusion, insecurity and sexual awakening that challenges both her friendship with Ana-Marija and her ingrained beliefs.
As she navigates her emotions, Lucija is forced to confront her values, the roles imposed by religion and social expectations, which tensions the group's harmony and reconfigures the dynamics with her classmates.
The film, directed by Urška Djukić in her feature debut, combines a poetic visual approach with an intimate narrative, where every look, gesture and decision contributes to the exploration of youth identity and vulnerability.
'[FILM]' has resonated at international festivals for its honest portrayal of the confusion, attraction and silent rebellion of the transition from girl to woman, making the viewer feel every doubt and every heartbeat of a stage of life in which everything seems to be at stake.
