this film be a very beautiful and slow film . there be nothing hollywood about it . it be very danish and the character be very real . it be the first danish film to take up this transsexual theme . it be really about love that have no gender . i would not say it be about lesbian love even though the two main character ( the transsexual veronika and charlotte ) be attract to each other . it be a story about love and life . the story pretty much take place in the two apartment . there be almost no background music and which make it seem more real and intense . the two actor play the main character be great . they really make them seem real . they be not archetype and but real people you could meet in the street . i think it be the first time i have see a transsexual portrayed this well . very well do .
