Salem This girl did nothing wrong , but the society and parent always didn't understand and treat us as children know noting about life and should have upper authority to told us what to do what not . Every normal person on her age had this experience of exposing his sex desires ,but when they grow start denied it , For the movie time line were interesting and surprise sometimes the story goes on the way I didn't expect . I personally when I was on her state , I always having this fantasies, and felt guilty about it because religion (and the stupid society ) . But this girls was way more brave then me since confess to her mother saying ( I love sex ) , her mother reactions remind me many parent reaction what they discover their boy watching Porn , it's like they living in denial not accepting fact their children grow up , rarely we found a parent understand this and give their sons freedom and experience life bu themselves .
sharptongue Yet another example of "great ingredients poorly cooked".The first reviewer pretty much nailed it. While I don't think the acting was all that bad, the boredom and relentless dullness of small-town 'life' pervades the mood to far too great an extent, utterly flattening the occasional moments of lightness and humour.The lead actress is compelling, and her situation all too clearly elucidated. But notwithstanding a few outbursts at her mother, Alma is such a doormat. And she had every opportunity to encourage Artur, but failed to take them.Anyone who grew up in an isolated small town could certainly relate to the situation. For me, there needed to be more humour and light relief to distract from the grinding dullness, which was much too realistic.Alma manages to find a group of people, away from her small-town schoolmates, who lighten the mood. There should have been much more of this in the film, and it may have been bearable.Honestly, more nudity and fewer 'strong sex scenes' (which were fairly muted) would have made TMOG more bearable. Perhaps in the sequel ?
Sindre Kaspersen Norwegian director and screenwriter Jannicke Systad Jacobsen's feature film debut which she wrote, was shot in Western Norway and is an adaptation of a novel by Norwegian writer Olaug Nilssen from 2007. It premiered In competition at the 10th Tribeca Film Festival in 2011, was screened In competition at the 22nd Stockholm International Film Festival in 2011 and is a Norwegian production which was produced by Norwegian producer Brede Hovland. It tells the story about Alma, a fifteen-year-old girl who lives with her single mother in the village Skoddeheimen. Alma spends most of her time with her two girlfriends Sara and Ingrid and she's got a crush on a boy from her school named Artur, but after an awkward incident at a home party Alma is accused of being a liar and all of the sudden everyone is bad-mouthing her, she becomes an outcast at school and is abandoned by Sara and Ingrid. With no one's support except for her mother and unable to get across her side of the story, Alma leaves the Norwegian countryside. Finely and engagingly directed by Norwegian filmmaker Jannicke Systad Jacobsen, this quietly paced and character-driven fictional tale which is narrated from the protagonist's point of view, draws an acute portrayal of the hardships a rebellious and hormonal teenage girl who lives at a very quiet place faces when she is perceived as a fraud by everyone at her school. While notable for its naturalistic milieu depictions, fine cinematography by cinematographer Marianne Bakke and use of sound, this charming and nuanced coming-of-age tale about friendship, sex and family relations depicts a singular study of character and contains a good score by Norwegian composer Ginge Anvik. This low-keyed, somewhat romantic, atmospheric and freshly humorous comedy drama is impelled and reinforced by its many rare characters, quick-witted dialog, cogent narrative structure and the impressive acting performances by feature film debutants Helene Bergsholm and Malin Bjørhovde and the fine supporting acting performance by Norwegian actress Henriette Steenstrup. A direct and compelling directorial debut which gained the Award for Best Screenplay for a Narrative Feature Film Jannicke Systad Jacobsen at the 10th Tribeca Film Festival in 2011.
billcr12 Alma is a high school girl in this offbeat comedy from Norway. It is apparent from the opening scene where the lead is on the floor next to a phone masturbating that this is very different from most teen films. Mom comes home and Alma hangs up from the sex hot line. She later explains the phone bill, telling her mother that she is horny; this is obviously told from a woman's perspective, the director is Jannicke Systad Jacobsen.Alma becomes a social outcast after accusing Artur, a classmate, of exposing himself and poking her in the thigh. His denials are believed and she escapes reality through fantasy, sexual and otherwise. even her best friends, Sara and Ingrid, doubt her story.Helene Bergsholm is very likable in the lead role as Alma but I didn't laugh much and the premise wears thin quickly.
