Sinekatalog’s take
Dag Johan Haugerud's drama follows a seventeen-year-old who writes about falling for her French teacher, which her mother and grandmother then read and debate. Ella Øverbye leads a calm, witty and perceptive film about desire, art and generations.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
