Sinopsis(1)
Ester (16) lives a safe but mundane life, in a small town on an island together with her religious and conservative parents. One day, when she’s in Sunday school, she meets Ragna, a girl who has just moved to the same small town with her alcoholic mother, and her 8-year-old brother. In Ragna, Ester sees what she has been looking for her whole life. Unaware that Ragna see’s the exact same thing in Ester, and especially Ester’s father. The attraction of opposites makes them best friends. Together they dream about getting away from their boring life on the island, but soon they realize that it’s only their own selves that they want to escape from. (Zlín Film Festival)

The plot drags a bit at times, but almost everything else is very good - from the remarkable performances of the central teenage girl protagonists, through the aptly chosen music, to the eloquent conclusion. There’s probably no need to mention the beautiful northern landscape of the Faroe Islands in which the story is set. (65%)
