Set amidst a Danish boy's boarding school in the late 1970s, Bo and Kim are naive young classmates, whose friendship blossoms into a love affair. When their friend is expelled for a prank involving lewd posters, the student body bands together to strike against the school and its authoritarian headmaster. Lasse Nielsen and Ernst Johansen's classic film is a groundbreaking meditation on innocence, rebellion and love.


Reasons to Buy

  2. A tender, innocent story of young love.
  3. With its breezy depiction of young boys in love, it could not be made today.

This is a very nicely done movie, with beautiful young boys and a wonderful love story with a strong ending.
Recommended in the Danish Cinema tradition to anyone who ever was in love, 3 thumbs up and a half thumb for the shower scene.
