Homesick

Charlotte (played well by Ine Marie Wilmann) has a lot of mommy/daddy/brother/family issues, but she tries hard to hide them and live a normal life. As it turns out, the road to normalcy leads her to even weirder places. The plot is unimportant, the dialogue is not particularly inspiring either; and while the production value is also high, the atmosphere is what makes this movie good. Loneliness and emotional confusion are portrayed well; if you like movies about human weirdness you will probably like this one as well.

Its a good movie but the ending was stupid . I thought they would get together and bbe happy you would think with all the sex they had. People say emotions are complex and this movie exactly postures it. The characters have done an amazing job which makes one connect to the actual situations in a very normal unforced natural way. The more the time is running it shades out from erotical romance to an unsettled unspoken life darkness. The best part of the movie that all of this is done more from the pauses and expression than the words in every situations.

I really loved the movie from the start to the end focusing more on the instability and sensitivity of the characters through few touches of forbidden romance.

Anne Sewitsky's Tabu (De nærmeste) is a deeply empathetic portrait of emotional need and blurred boundaries. Exploring the taboo of half-sibling romance, the film carefully navigates its provocative premise with more nuance than I expected.

Charlotte, plagued by abandonment issues, is drawn to her self-absorbed half-brother Henrik. Their relationship is less about shock value and more about two people reaching for connection in the wrong places. The film's real strength lies in Ine Marie Wilmann's quietly powerful performance, anchoring the narrative with vulnerability and emotional depth.

While the theme may stir discomfort, Tabu gladly isn't interested in moralizing. Instead, it offers an unusual family drama about desire.

You may wonder about the rating - I didn't check why, but a drama usually does get lower ratings, because ... you know it's more story driven. This is both story driven and character driven though ... and there is a fair amount of sex/intercourse too. Which includes nudity and some violence - just making sure you are aware of that.

The acting is really good and while you may not feel any love for the characters or their behaviour (no pun intended), it is quite the intriguing story it tells us here. We know this is something that shouldn't be happening ... but we also know that certain things seem impossible to avoid ...

More sex than in any other erotic movie like Fifty Shades.

This is Fifty Shades of OMG YES
