Perfect for a Valentine's Day horror binge, Welz's films focus on the horror of romantic love in various forms-this time adolescent love.

Currently streaming on Shudder.

This is a beautiful, sad film that captures something very true about adolescence.

Love du Welz in general, really underrated filmmaker.
