Jon is 17. He lives in the midst of a claustrophobic world which once seemed destined to become a seething metropolis of high-rise tower blocks and intersections until one day an absurd traffic accident occurs. At the time, Jon was made responsible. He had just turned nine years of age. Ever since, Jon’s father has anxiously watched over Jon’s development. But then one day Jon’s desire is awakened by a girl and, all at once, his oppressive environment begins to change.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a poignant metaphor for coming of age against a backdrop of stalled urban development, relying on a minimalist aesthetic and understated performances. It explores the weight of guilt, paternal surveillance, and the first flicker of personal agency.

What lingers after viewing is a melancholic yet warm portrait of how a crack can appear in the most stagnant reality, letting in a sliver of light. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Rune Schjøtt
