Missed some of the film including a lot about the identical sister because I was baking a cake whilst watching this, other than that the film had a really cool fun vibe and European films just have a sort of humour that the English speaking world can't reproduce

Played this at the youth in workers’ movement summit and advertised this as „movie about an ecoterrorist”. Everyone agreed to this, enjoyed, and rated 5/5.
Love this energy.
