Stuck on the waitlist for her dream university, a young woman lies to her situationship, hoping to solidify them as a couple before they leave for school. Becca Standt directs “FML,” a coming-of-age dramedy where young romance gets tested as the next chapter in life turns. After being waitlisted by New York University, Emily finally gets an email back saying she’s been officially rejected. Nina, who was accepted to the school, sits across from Emily at a coffee shop when she receives the news. She figures telling the truth could end any possibility of a long-term relationship, so Emily lies to Nina and says she was also accepted. As hangouts follow, Emily suffocates under the burden of her lie and her friends get closer to the truth. While the anxiety of college acceptances may be generationally universal, Standt and her characters’ voice feel distinctly Gen-Z. Lead actress Jordan Hull amusingly captures our attention in her dynamic deliveries as a young person keeping a secret. -JM. Director: Becca Standt.
