Synopsis
Spoiler shield
Marie Kreutzer's film avoids stereotypes of teenagers. Instead of proceeding from the assumption that having problems is simply part of being 14, the protagonists are shown in the context of their everyday lives. The camera follows Theres, remaining close to her body, her gestures and the objects of her attention.
“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
