About the film

James and Penny are stuck in a world where everything is disposable. From fruit and toilet paper, to kisses, terms of affection and promises that they exchange. Super tells the story of their first/last date. It unfolds as a mumblecore comedy-drama in black and white, touching on the themes of time, love, alienation, performativity and the illusion that things may last forever.
