A vivid yet tender look at Lalo and Karla, two Black queer friends in Hamburg, searching for themselves.
Following the sudden death of his father, Lalo (Lamin Leroy Gibba) struggles with grief, breakups, and new encounters, while Karla (Melodie Simina), an ambitious finance professional, is exhausted by the pressures of her job. Between chosen family, intimate wounds, and bursts of desire, Black Fruit paints a raw and electrifying portrait of a youth where love, loss, and ambition collide.

Available online the day after the in-theatre screening.
