Shot independently over eight years, <\/span>Ninja Motherf*cking Destruction<\/b> is the portrait of a friendship and all the ways it changes over time. At 18, Leonie and Marlene are inseparable. Then come relationships, different ideas of how to live, university, the city, work \u2013 their closeness shifts, and eventually they lose sight of each other. Leonie falls in love with Naomi, becomes increasingly isolated and, after the relationship ends, leaves Berlin to work in agriculture. Years later, she realizes someone is missing from her life. A queer coming-of-age about friendship, love and the paths that come between them, enigmatic, immediate and carried by remarkable performances.<\/span><\/p>

_________________________________________

Ninja Motherf*cking Destruction<\/b> ist das Portr\u00e4t einer Freundschaft \u00fcber acht Jahre, truly independent gedreht und unglaublich nah an seinen Figuren und den Ver\u00e4nderungen der Zeit. Mit 18 sind Leonie und Marlene unzertrennlich. Dann kommen Beziehungen, Lebensentw\u00fcrfe, Studium, Stadt und Arbeit; ihre N\u00e4he verschiebt sich, irgendwann verlieren sie sich aus den Augen. Leonie verliebt sich in Naomi, zieht sich zunehmend zur\u00fcck und verl\u00e4sst nach dem Ende der Beziehung Berlin, um in der Landwirtschaft zu arbeiten. Jahre sp\u00e4ter merkt sie, dass jemand in ihrem Leben fehlt. Ein queeres Coming-of-Age \u00fcber Freundschaft, Liebe und die Wege, die dazwischenkommen, unmittelbar und gro\u00dfartig gespielt.<\/span><\/p>
