The premise

Sasha is a young vampire with a serious problem: she's too sensitive to kill. When her exasperated parents cut off her blood supply, Sasha's life is in jeopardy. Luckily, she meets Paul, a lonely teenager with suicidal tendencies who is willing to give his life to save hers. But their friendly agreement soon becomes a nocturnal quest to fulfill Paul's last wishes before day breaks.

Horror Vault's take

Sasha is a vampire with a fatal flaw — she simply can't bring herself to harm anyone, leaving her starving while her patience-worn family looks the other way. A chance encounter with Paul, a withdrawn teenager wrestling with his own will to live, offers a strange solution that suits them both. What begins as a darkly practical arrangement between two lost souls gradually unfolds into something far more human. This French-Canadian gem blends deadpan comedy with genuine emotional weight in ways few genre films dare attempt.
