#YOUTH_MATTERS!
The weight of time is very much felt in Kiruna, a nothing-out-of-the-ordinary and yet somehow peculiarly special Swedish polar town, the only thing that literally shakes the town is a coalmine, its only economic resource. The radio is anxiously broadcasting news about a possible disaster. Meanwhile, almost as if taking the imminent danger for granted, three local teenagers Markus, Daniel, and Zerin get their first taste of adulthood, its challenges and emotional turbulences. The poetic coming-of-age drama by a young Swedish director Sofia Norlin takes a detailed and careful look at these fragile emotions against the backdrop of the harsh Nordic environment.
