I'm Gonna Explode
The romantic escapades of two teens who initiate an impossible rebellion against the adult world. Tortured by violent fantasies and craving his father’s attention, Roman attempts suicide several times, but his life is changed when he meets Maru, a solitary girl who is sexually harassed by her relentless ex-boyfriend. United in rebellion, Roman and Maru disappear to the roof of Roman's house. Their new life pushes them to discover their sexuality and an intense intimacy. Realizing they will soon be discovered and separated, the young pair looks to expand the limits of their recently formed paradise. But in the real world, wounds are true and actions have consequences. Intimate portrait of a rebellious young couple that finds in each other the answer to the nonsense of living in a hypocritical society. “Thrilling and moving...surprisingly sexy” –Longworth, SPOUT. “Triumphantly tragicomic.
