So Damn Easy Going (2022) 14

Sweden, Norway | 2022 | 91 min.

Joanna's mind is like a flashing amusement park at peak season. She is 18 years old and needs ADHD meds to keep her buzzy brain in order. With a depressed father whose sick pay is barely covering the rent, money runs out and Joanna can’t afford her medication. So as not to become a disturbing and unfiltered version of herself, Joanna must be creative in her hunt for money. In the midst of the chaos, the charming and confident Audrey appears.
