Kissing, Tickling And Being Bored is an interesting slice-of-life film that captures the monotony and confusion of teenage existence. Maddy, at fifteen, navigates her dull world with a touch of mischief, like tickling her brother to tears, which is oddly satisfying. The dynamic with her boyfriend Daz adds a layer of tension, as he pushes for a more physical relationship while she grapples with her feelings and boundaries. The film has this raw, almost unpolished feel β it's not trying to glamorize adolescence, but rather presents it in its awkwardness and complexity. Its unique tone and atmosphere make it distinctive, even if the director remains unknown. The pacing is slow, but that reflects Maddy's sense of boredom and longing for something more.
Kissing, Tickling And Being Bored is a bit of an oddity in the collector's market, not widely known and somewhat elusive. There are limited formats available, which adds to its scarcity; a few DVDs and maybe some digital releases if you're lucky. Interest is niche, mainly among those who appreciate raw, character-driven narratives that don't fit the mainstream mold. It's worth keeping an eye out for if you're into unique explorations of adolescence.
