Birds and Bees

About This Movie

Birds and Bees delves into the tumultuous landscape of teenage relationships, where a couple's private moments become public fodder. The tone is raw and introspective, capturing the awkwardness and intensity of adolescence. The pacing feels almost frenetic at times, mirroring the chaotic emotions of its characters. Charlie Josephine’s writing shines through in the physicality and spoken word elements—definitely distinct. It takes a hard look at consequences of online actions, and the performances are, well, strikingly authentic. You can really feel the weight of peer pressure and the struggle for identity in this piece.

This film, although perhaps lesser-known, has gained attention for its compelling exploration of social media's impact on youth. Formats are a bit sparse, which adds to its appeal among collectors who appreciate unique narratives. The combination of physical performance and spoken word makes it a curiosity, and the distinct themes resonate well with contemporary discussions about privacy and relationships.
