Don’t be taken in by that title – the Finnish helmer’s sophomore feature has nothing to do with either Ice Cube or Chris Tucker. Following her 2016 debut feature, Love and Fury, about two aspiring writers and their all-consuming affair, as well as the anthology film Force of Habit, Finnish director Alli Haapasalo will now focus on slightly younger protagonists in a film brought to life by Helsinki-based Citizen Jane Productions. Friday, currently in pre-production, will see three teenage girls trying to figure out who they are and what they want over the course of three consecutive Fridays. Including Emma, a successful figure skater close to making the European Championships, as well as Mimmi and Rönkkö – friends who, despite their outsider status, dream of being accepted into the “popular” crowd. When two of them slowly fall for each other, things become predictably complicated. And that’s even before the weekend.
