**A coming-of-age from Iceland.**

The initial impression was not very good. Made me uneasy to watch. Because there were some inhumane shots. They all looked so real. So I thought I would going to hate this film. But I did not. It was only in the opening, like a small black spot in something beautiful. Soon the scenario had changed. Jumped into tail two friends, their activities. That’s understandable to show us their bond and what to expect in the latter parts.

This is a children’s film, but teenager’s. So like at their age, it’s desperate to learn about the opposite sex attraction. Most of the time it won’t be pleasant. The teens have their own way to explore it. So the film was focused on their take on the sexuality. Come-of-age theme where the majority revolved around friendship. Definitely a good awareness film, but very intentional storytelling. Especially the twist and the conclusion. For me it was intentional, because I’ve seen plenty of similar films. But I don’t think you and others would think that way as well. Kind of easy to guess how it all turns out at the end, but when you see them in pictures, the experience is different.

In a small remote town of Iceland, it’s about a time for two teen friends to find out their sexuality. Their families have issues, but nothing stopping them to wandering around everyday, hanging out with the girls, doing stuff like anyone of their age would do. When one of their small mischievous events is taken seriously by their parents, the things begin to change forth. They are not same anymore. The long standing friendship is tested now. But how the story ends was conveniently told.

This is a gay themed film, though not right from the beginning or too deeply dived to narrate the tale from that angle. But like usual, it highlighted how still in some places the word gay is still a sin. All you can learn about it from the kid’s perspective, how they are sidelined among their ages. You could say that they were yet to learn the meaning of it, but the case is not the same with their elders too. Not focused enough on the adult characters, yet the film reveals their society is not open enough for all kinds.

I have seen a lot such awareness film about LGBT, this is another that tells about the Iceland’s version of discrimination. Totally respect the film and filmmaking, because it’s made with a good intention. Though like I have mentioned, the opening was not pleasant. Opened with a brutal tone which did not stay that way henceforth. Being an animal and a nature lover, I could not stand for it. Other than that, there’s no reason to dislike the flick. In some way, that was a step taken in the transformation of the characters. That’s what it’s all about, the meaning of coming-of-age, is not it!

Well, for a such theme, the actors usually are fresh faces. So they all performance so good. It was a directional debut for the filmmaker as well. Awesomely written and made. Won many film festivel awards. I particularly loved the countryside scenic. Just same as what I’ve seen from the Kiwi films that set in the rural areas. As much as they focused on the story, it had very pleasant backgrounds that synced so beautifully with what it had narrated for us. It had been in my watchlist. We put films into that list when something interesting element triggers. So now I’m happy to scratch it off. Mission accomplished! It surely stood to the expectation and so do I now recommend it for others as well.

_7/10_

Am I bad?
Should I be sad?
I am different
and it’s really an embarrassment.

I feel
I try
I love
and smile

My girlfriends are as their mothers
My boyfriends are as they fathers
I am like our fathers
with a combination with our mothers.

I feel like I am girl
I kiss like I am sensible to man’s hiss
like a man who likes other men
in the way there is something beyond our beautiful faces.
These are our beautiful hearts.

I tried to be like they are
I tried to be like other guys
I prayed
I learned how to act
with a lot of different facts.

You can see: I am a bit confused.
Born like a boy,
now I am like a girl.
I love boys I kiss boys
and i make up me and my toys.

I went so far
I have fallen in love with my boyfriend
who started to realize how weird am I
I started to wonder: who am I?

Am I boy?
Am I girl?
Not for sure.
I am confused.
I am not like others.
Not like my brothers and fathers.

I am sad,
I am bad,
There is no more life for me
Heartstone is a very bad burden

I have to make an end
Goodbye my mother
Goodbye my father
Goodbye my lovely friend!

One of the best movies of the genre
Must watch! The movie just grips you from the start and does not let go. The acting is superp and the shots are beautiful. It portrays the harshness of the wilderness with the first feeling of the youth coming of age.
