Zero Fucks Given

Cassandra spends her free time between shifts drinking small bottles of duty free alcohol, flirting with men on Tinder and partying with random people she meets in each city. She’s always willing to take on extra hours, but she works for a smaller airline and is poorly paid. Her dream is to work for a better company, but that could prove hard to achieve with her extravagant lifestyle.

Zero Fucks Given is a low-key drama, which at times almost feels like a documentary. It seems as if we follow a real airline stewardess on her job, with all the small and big challenges that come with it, and we become all the more connected to Cassandra on her journey to personal growth. We get an insider's view into what it means to be part of a globalized working life, for better or worse. The film is carried by Adèle Exarchopoulos’s presence in virtually every scene, and the film was nominated at the International Critics’ Week at this year’s Cannes Festival.
