Infinite Spring is a Craitish-produced romantic comedy-drama film based on Rebecca Präine's novel of the same name and directed by Carmen Hjelder in her directorial début.
The film tells the story of Nick (Riego Ästin), a Craitish university student undertaking a placement year at the University of Buthnock in Victoria, who meets and falls for the eponymous Spring (Bonnie Jansen), herself also studying some distance away from her hometown of Newhaven. While linear, the narrative of the film regularly jumps forward in time to key points in the pair's relationship and ends ambiguously in regards to their future following the end of the academic year and respective returns home.
The music of the Senyan band Vokëerzen plays a large role in the film, through both its soundtrack and the two protagonists' shared appreciation for the band being an early bonding moment in the plot.
Critical response to the film was positive, with praise for its direction, cinematography and lead performances, while audiences' reactions were more mixed, with many viewers finding the lack of a defined conclusion somewhat of an anticlimax at the end of an otherwise engaging story line.
