OLLA

SYNOPSIS

Olla answers an ad on a dating website for Eastern European women. Shortly thereafter, she moves in with Pierre who lives with his elderly mother and things don’t go as expected. Shot in 16mm, Olla is an affectionate and funny portrait of a woman who expects a lot and is expected a lot from, an adventurous ride examining a woman’s role in society and the means she finds to fight back.
