Show Me Love
World Cinema Classics • Drama, UR
Elin is beautiful, brash and popular, but desperate for excitement. Agnes is friendless and depressed, and secretly in love with Elin. Despite a few – truly lame – parties, their achingly-boring, provincial hometown crushes both their spirits, and we root for romance to blossom. Show Me Love is a tender and funny portrait of teen angst and confusion, and it introduced Lukas Moodysson as a director with unique sensitivity to the sweet agonies of being young and in love.
