“The outside world is evil!16-year-old Claudia heard this from her mother countless times. Now her mother is dead and Claudia is all alone in her remote house. Until Grace, the same age, suddenly appears in the garden – full of spirit, but also traumatized. The two young women can help each other and give each other hope, that they didn't know before. But then the romantic summer idyll threatens to be destroyed.
Australian director Katie Found accompanies two outsiders in “My First Summer”., who discover happiness for two in the sun-drenched seclusion. An intimate and sensitively told coming-of-age drama in dreamy images - with the fantastic newcomers Markella Kavenagh and Maiah Stewardson in the leading roles.” (salt giver & Co. Media Ltd)
