Twist and Shout

1984 · 1 hr 39 mins

Danish teens come of age in 1963. Bjorn and Erik are close friends. Bjorn is pursued by Kirsten, a future Stepford wife, but he falls for Anna, who initiates him into love and sex. Erik is somber, caring for his home-bound mentally-ill mother while his strict father rules his life. He desires Kirsten, but she's unattainable. Pregnancy, a horrific abortion, an engagement party, and a revelation about the rectitude of Erik's father lead to a climax: Bjorn and Erik must stand up to controlling adults.

Director: Bille August

Cast: Adam Tønsberg, Lars Simonsen, Camilla Søeberg, Ulrikke Bondo, Lone Lindorff
