Gutsy cinema that breaks new ground
DENMARK , Iceland | 93 minutes | 2018
A teenager living with his mother in Copenhagen is forced to move to a remote small town. He struggles with the transition until he meets Bjarke, a strange yet endearing 15-year-old boy. Their relationship intensifies when they have to make a video for a school project that turns into an outlet for their frustrations. This first film by a promising young Danish director stands out for its narrative (de)construction, editing and an innovative sound design that drives the action forward and takes the viewer to the point of no return. PREMIÈRE INTERNATIONALEQ&A with the director on October 8 and 9
