Press:
“[The film] adopts a child’s POV: basked in sunlight, the effervescence of youth is palpable, yet demons lurk just outside the frame.”
““Cherubs” is, in essence, an ode to the gray area in sexual situations that is so hard to explain and so often missed — but which can also have an extremely deep impact, especially on a young person.”
A sci-fi existential queer drama about grief, loss and belonging. A traveler wanders an apocalyptic midwest collecting the last words of the people they meet on their way, and coming to terms with their own grief at the end of the world.

“The video, co-directed by Abner and Olivia Kimmel, captures the melancholic air of the song.” “Shooting in a dreamy, vintage, almost unreal feeling and isolated setting felt like the right metaphor for that state of mind.”

“The video, which premieres today on The FADER, is likewise sweet, sad, and shadowy. "We shot a lot of the video on my birthday with a bunch of my friends," she said, "so the process of making it felt quite fitting of the song."“

“It’s an evocative film which explores curiosity and conformity in the wake of an increasing surveillance culture. Orwellian, to say the least.”
