“Movie: Spontaneous”

Brian Duffield made his directorial debut in this 2020 sci-fi black comedy set at a high school where students have started to explode inexplicably. Living in such a world unsurprisingly fosters a strong “seize the day” attitude within the student body, so it’s not surprising when an unexpected romance blossoms between classmates Mara and Dylan (Katherine Langford, Charlie Plummer). Hayley Law and Piper Perabo also star.
