Coinciding with her first taste of new love with a boy who is far from faithful, their close-knit bond is challenged by her father’s sudden suicide attempt. A truly unconventional coming of age story dealing with love and loss, Nena is a promising debut. UK Premiere.
Introduced and followed by a Q&A with director Saskia Diesing.
‘Nena brings to life the turbulent emotions of the life of a teenager. It’s a nostalgic and often relatable tale which grips you right until the credits.’ Beth, 15
