a come of age story about a teenager rebel against the church and her minister father in a small norwegian village . the countryside setting be picturesque but the story be rather pretentious and plodding and with much of the film devote to quote scripture . it like watch a religious propaganda movie . theisen and who have make only one other movie and be pretty good a the sensitive young protagonist and a be sundquist a her strict father and riise a a woman that theisen be fascinate with . the film aim to be fresh and charm but feel rather stale and tired . director and co writer nesheim and who have work mostly in tv and be not up to the task .
