About The Best Lover
The Best Lover is a short film about loving yourself. It plays with the myths of love in pursuit of the revolutionary power of self-love. Bursting with feminist laughter and metaphorical montage, the short film looks for a sincere opportunity to save the entire living community. The Best Lover was inspired by the thoughts of professor, writer and activist bell hooks (1952–2021).
Directed by Ninni Korkalo, The Best Lover leans on a strong ensemble — Sari Lilliestierna, Loise Ondiso Madete, Aarne Shhadeh — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2023.
