It Felt Like Love

Streaming video - 2013

In this unflinchingly honest and refreshingly unsentimental coming-of-age story, 14-year-old Lila spends a languid South Brooklyn summer playing third wheel to her promiscuous friend Chiara and Chiara's boyfriend Patrick. Eager for her own sexual awakening, Lila gamely decides to pursue the older, thuggish Sammy, rumored to sleep with anyone. But as Lila's overt advances unmask her inexperience and quiet desperation, she is quickly pushed into frightening and unwelcome new territory. Nominated for Best Cinematography and the John Cassavetes Award at the **Film Independent Spirit Awards**. Nominated for Best of Next! at the **Sundance Film Festival**. "*Rarely has the zone between girlhood and womanhood been captured with such... urgent honesty than in Eliza Hittman's superb teen drama.*" - Inkoo Kang, ***The Los Angeles Times***
