Short Fuse (2023) 16

Finland | 2023 | 80 min.

Sixteen-year-old Meri hates school and all her bullies so much that she would like to throw a bomb. And one day, she decides to do just that. An encounter with Satanist Janita and nerd Kristian only serves to reconfirm her decision, and the disparate trio begin to plot their destructive plans. But none of them expects their friendship to turn their desire to blow people up into a desire to love them. A crackling Finnish series about friendship as the most effective detonator of adolescence. Own Fault, duration: 21 min Sub Seeks Dom, duration: 25 min Main Day, duration: 22 min
