Netherlands – 2023

Synopsis

When 23-year-old Franky hears the words “I love you” from her boyfriend after sex, her response is merely: “Whatever, I’ll see you later.” As a child, she was seriously injured by a fire and this has left its mark on more than just her body. Now she works as a nurse at the very hospital where her life was once saved. She is a welcome sight in every room and finds the right words for every patient. However, obsessed with a thirst for revenge and a need to assign guilt for the traumatic event that happened 15 years before, she is unable to build any meaningful relationship, until she falls in love with one of her patients – Florence.

The story is based on improvisations and recollections of true events from lead actor Vicky Knight’s life.
