Plain Language Description

Bomb is a dark comedy about Dasha, a Ukrainian activist whose brain won’t shut up. The year is 2017. Dasha is trying to save the world, fix her relationship, and get her therapist to stop asking questions she doesn’t want to answer. It’s not going well. Her thoughts are spiraling, her reality is bending, and every conversation feels like a small explosion. As the pressure builds, Dasha starts to unravel... Bomb is fast, funny, darkly absurd, and a little bit tragic. It’s about burnout, big emotions, and staying sane when the world feels like it’s blowing up.
