About This Movie

June, our protagonist, is relatable—her misadventures and small victories as she navigates the summer heat and her not-so-great dating experiences. The practical effects are minimal, but that adds to its charm, keeping the focus on character interactions. Performances are refreshingly authentic, making the whole affair feel like a slice of life rather than a scripted narrative. Its whimsy and grounded nature sort of coexist, creating an atmosphere that’s both lighthearted and contemplative in its exploration of connection amid the vastness of the city.
