Fardosa is an intimate short film about a young woman growing up in the big-sky suburbs of Helsinki. The film touches upon the importance of friendship, identity, and the generational differences between those born into different cultural contexts from their parents. This mercurial coming-of-age film includes the elements that most enjoy from the genre—the freewheeling spirit of youth and rebellion—but is interrupted by phantasmagorical reveries from the lead actor’s complex interior world.

Gloria’s attempt to kidnap the heir of a wealthy family succeeds in getting him through her apartment door. But once there, mistakes will soon plague her less-than-perfect plan.
