Bad acting, bad plot. Do your self a favor and watch something else

It is thouroughly hard to sympathize with any of the characters in the movie. They are all doing stupid actions over and over again, in the sake of "lust". Many of the scenes are thouroughly unbeliveable in the way they are portrayed. Also, the nordic noir style of the movie seems unappropriate. The actors are doing a decent job with the material they are given, but when your actors are realistically representing unsympathetic characters, in a story that seems unrealistic, then it is hard to be engaged in what is happening.

Just imagine if the genders in this film were reversed the people hailing it would be condemning it as a excuse for rape. And we are seeing rape portrayed here. While 16 maybe the age of consent in many countries, in EVERY developed country there is a specific exclusion of consent if the adult involved is a teacher or person with supervisory/"en loco parentis" role, ie a teacher etc. this film actually blames the young man who is a rape victim.

At the start it seems like Markus is stalking Anita (not confirmed) , but very quickly turns other way around. Anita is obsessed with Markus and does unforgivable things. Not a thriller in the slightest but a warning example of female stalkers and predatory behavior.

Bad introduction Slow paced S**t ending Spare yourself
