Set during a summer in rural Devon, I’d like to get to know you explores Francesca Allen's tentative foray into a new relationship with her younger sister Alida.
Francesca turns her gaze curiously on Alida, but not without hesitation - growing up, the traditional sibling bond had felt elusive. I’d like to get to know you shows the sisters tiptoeing around each other with a palpable tension, a push and a pull, opening up and later holding back; relationships are not linear.
A vivid and sun-soaked record of a complex yet flourishing relationship with changing dynamics, not only in how Francesca sees Alida, but how Alida sees herself.
