Erupcja (Film Review) — Deeply Human

Erupcja, written, directed, and produced by Pete Ohs, is a quietly affecting drama about two women who use cosmic excuses to complicate their love lives. Bethany (Charli xcx) arrives in Warsaw, Poland, with her boyfriend Rob (Will Madden) for what is meant to be a romantic getaway. Their plans are unexpectedly disrupted when a volcanic eruption in Italy cancels their flights and strands them in…

Erupcja (dir. Pete Ohs) x SXSW 2026.

Pop superstar Charli XCX stars in the loosely-scripted Polish film, where each person is the main character of their own slice of the 72-minute story. Set in Warsaw, we follow characters played by XCX, Jeremy O. Harris, Lena Góra, and Will Madden (all co-writers and producers) as they adventure around the city in a sensual Euro-romance love triangle amidst the volcanic eruption of Mount Etna, standing in as a metaphor for XCX's tumultuous personal life. It casually shows the randomness of young women's behaviour in a delightfully breezy manner.

Premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival as part of the Centrepiece program.

Screened at the 2026 South by Southwest Film & TV Festival (Austin, Texas) as part of the Festival Favorite section.

Screening at the VIFF Centre from Apr. 24–May 6.

Mini-review:

This was... something, and I'm not sure if I liked it or not. It definitely presents an interesting and original premise, but I feel like it's not executed as well as it should for it to properly work. The movie is already very short (just 70 minutes long), and yet I think it would have worked better as short film. One thing I did love is the absolutely stunning cinematography, which makes perfect use of the gorgeous locations where this was filmed. Anyway, it's honestly kinda sad, cause I can tell there's a lot of potential in this set up, but it feels like the movie's team didn't really know what to do with it (or didn't have the means and resources to do more).
