Some trigger warnings might be needed here,
For social awkwardness at its worst height
Of tension is this film's point. I don't fear
Encounters with new people, but new fright
Might well be triggered by the agony
We share with Melanie (especially since
The smart and lucky ones still aren't quite free
Of lockdown in this COVID year). You'll wince
Each this young, new teacher meets someone,
And nod as her collection of house plants
Increases as her life moves from not fun
To desolate. If Eva Lobau's glance,
All neediness and optimism, breaks
Your heart, well, you were warned, and no mistake.
