About this item
Product Description
Socially awkward lesbian teenager AJ begrudgingly joins her family on a seaside vacation. She finds herself constantly at odds with her painfully "normal" mother and older sister, neither of whom can understand why she doesn't smile more or "dress like a girl." Her anticipated "week of hell" takes an unexpected turn when Isla, a free-spirited and sun-loving lifeguard, catches her eye. Full to the brim with teen angst and romantic fumbling, Sweetheart wryly captures the bittersweet pangs of adolescent yearning, self-realization and personal connections, all against the hilarious ups and downs of the quintessential British family holiday. Praised as an "authentic account of the murky, counterintuitive waters of the queer adolescent experience" (Little White Lies), Marley Morrison’s feature debut is a surprisingly ebullient coming-of-age charmer not to be missed. Bonus short film: Admit One, directed by Emma Aikman.
Review
[A] nuanced performance by Barlow... making an impressive feature debut... in this universal, warm-hearted story --Amber Wilkinson, Screen Daily
Quick-witted and understated, Sweetheart is a feel-good story that leaves everyone on a high. --Hattie Collins, Vogue
The writer and director Marley Morrison... cannily observes details that feel specific to young people... to the film’s credit, the central relationship remains realistically drawn ― a teenage courtship that’s marked by misunderstandings and mood swings. The characters aren’t always sweet, but they never feel phony. --Teo Bugbee, The New York Times
