NOUR-ANI SISSERIAN

It’s about Saida who was bullied at school. 

It’s about Marlon who can’t stand dating apps

But still uses them. 

It’s also about Saida talking about female sexual pleasure.

And Marlon dancing alone in his bedroom. 

It’s about Saida and Marlon dealing with their personal stuff.

It’s the two of them starting all their sentences by ‘My favourite thing is…'

It’s about them.

It’s about love

Struggle

Pain

Life

It’s about us.
