Sasha, like any other vampire, should feed on human blood. The problem is she feels too much empathy to be hunting for her prey. A lonely teenage boy Paul she meets in unusual circumstances may be her only help.

Sasha finds it difficult to hunt for innocent prey so she’s unable to obtain her life-giving fluid this way – she needs to drink blood from plastic bags that she keeps in the fridge. It will be hard to keep her cool when she finds out that her supply is about to be cut off. At a support group meeting, she meets Paul. The boy is depressed and decides to give his life to Sasha. This is where the problem grows bigger – the two quickly become friends, and Sasha cannot kill her friend to satisfy her needs. If you like Wednesday, you’ll surely love this film, which skilfully balances dark humour and the theme of an unusual teenage relationship.
