The world is closing in on Greta Driscoll. On the cusp of turning fifteen she can't bear to leave her childhood, it contains all the things that give her comfort in this incomprehensible new world. She floats in a bubble of loserdom with her only friend Elliott, until her parents throw her a surprise 15th birthday party and she's flung into a parallel place; a world that's weirdly erotic, a little bit violent and thoroughly ludicrous – only there can she find herself. Based on the critically acclaimed production by Windmill Theatre, Girl Asleep is a journey into the absurd, scary and beautiful heart of the teenage mind. (Kojo Pictures)

A film that I simply have to like for its fantasy and at the same time the bizarre and absurd nature of what we're watching. Some characters are oddball students, the kind that nobody really likes, but it's precisely their story that is interesting. Especially the girl we're following. This is just so weird it's beautiful.

Just count on a completely crazy indie plot since the beginning. Around the 77th minute it even evolves into a decent premise that is not only original, but also entertains. What else can I do than be excited about this unique small-scale film? Films like this one are truly rare.
