The sleepover is a classic trope in movies about teenagers, usually presented as a girls-only ritual. Kerr transforms this traditional ‘rite of passage’ into a ‘site of passage’: a plotless collection of unusual actions, utterances and gestures, closer to avant-garde dance than psychological profiling, performed by the young cast in a fresh and natural way. Adolescence has never looked so hermetic and mysterious. – IFF Rotterdam
