Heretic Picks up Sales for Perspectives Competition Title LITTLE TROUBLE GIRLS ahead of Berlin

Heretic has picked up sales for Urška Djukić’s debut feature film premiering in Perspectives Competition, ahead of the Berlinale.

The film focuses on introverted 16-year-old Lucia, who joins her Catholic school’s all-girl choir, where she befriends Ana-Maria, a popular and flirty third-year student. But when the choir travels to a countryside convent for a weekend of intensive rehearsals, Lucia’s interest in a dark-eyed restoration worker tests her friendship with Ana-Maria and the other girls. As she navigates unfamiliar surroundings and her budding sexuality, Lucia begins to question her beliefs and values, disrupting the harmony within the choir.

In a statement, Djukić said: “I began by exploring the female voice, which has been silenced so often throughout history. This led me to the awkward relationship with sexuality, sin, and feelings of guilt. Through a sensitive young girl shaped by societal conventions of sinfulness, I wanted to delve into how a young person finds their own inner power.
