Love in the Tinder Age

Yeon Joo is a high schooler trapped in a cycle of self-loathing and explosive anger, pushing away everyone who tries to get close. When a chance conversation leads her to a mysterious ritual, she accidentally summons a playful, otherworldly being who can only be seen by her. This unexpected supernatural encounter forces Yeon Joo to confront her own identity as a young lesbian in a conservative society, her fractured family life with an absent parent, and the walls she's built around her heart. Part coming-of-age dramedy, part supernatural romance, *Love in the Tinder Age* blends lighthearted comedy with genuine emotional heft, exploring self-acceptance, queer friendships (including a charming gay supporting character), and the messy, beautiful process of learning to love yourself first. It's a short but punchy film that punches above its runtime with sincerity and a touch of magic.
