In small town Norway, 15-year-old Alma is obsessed with sex and approaches classmate Artur which leads to her being ostracized. This indie is a bit slow. The lead is 18 year old newcomer Helene Bergsholm. She has the advantage and disadvantage of being a nobody. She looks real if a little bit old for the role. She lacks the skills to truly inject the needed emotional turmoil. It is interesting to have girls be sexually inquisitive and there is plenty of quirkiness in this coming-of-age film.
There is one hilarious joke of people calling Alma a name. I'm sure there are a whole bunch of Norwegian jokes that I missed. The name they call Alma made me laugh, and I smile every time I saw it. It's so childishly moronic that it's funny.
