Synopsis

Michaela is young and ready for it. But when she finally gets her first period, it doesn’t feel the way it should. It is a nightmare. Period Drama is a short animated film composed of four chapters with plot points referencing the biological events that occur during the phases of a menstrual cycle. The film analyses menstruation’s essential and often baffling presence in one’s life, while commenting on adolescence, gender politics, sexuality, motherhood and Orlando Bloom.
