Set in the WWII era, the story tells of a boy in a small village who befriends three girls around his age. One day he discovers a young couple sneaking into an old and cracked bathing shack and decides to alert his new friends. When the kids join up at the shack, the eldest girl comes up with the idea to lock the couple inside, threatening not to let them out until they "do it" and allow the kids to watch from the outside. And so begins the psychological warfare...

Feelings like love and sexual curiosity are a part of growing up. The transformation from child to adolescent is an exciting time. In this joyful film we follow a group of 10-year old kids over a few weeks in the summer, where many things are starting to change in their lives. The film is based on a novel by Rune Belsvik. The story-line is quite simple – the summer adventures and discoveries of several 10-year-old kids. They go skinny dipping (isn’t it too cold for that in Norway?), play together and discover the wonders and confusions of growing up and changes in the way they perceive the opposite sex (girls are not that gross after all, are they?). As a separate plot line, we follow the father of a pair of brothers falling in love with their teacher. That provides for a sweet, but comic, parallel about falling in love at any age (the confusion and red cheeks seem to me to be permanent throughout life).

This is a very heavy film. Because everything that is shown in it is true. Tens of thousands of children of all ages live in the streets of our cities. They are raped by pedophiles, beaten by police, they live in dark corners of heating mains and cellars - defenseless, unnecessary, sniffing glue and drinking vodka. On the streets, one of them is getting sick, beaten even more defenseless and weaker than they, they get into orphanages and stay there for a long time, most of them just die - from AIDS, hepatitis, drugs and violence.

Léo is dragged to a nudist camping resort by his mother. Like most boys at the age of 12 or 13, being nude in public holds little appeal for Léo, who protests by wearing extra layers. Until he meets a certain special girl, who captures his heart and releases his inhibitions.

This instructional film teaches parents how to talk to their children about sex. Parent to Child about Sex (Color, 1965, excerpt) A rabbi, a priest, and a psychologist want you to talk to your child about sex! No, it's not a raunchy joke, it's the basis of this Mad Men-styled sex- education short. Frank discussions amongst the panel on topics like wet dreams and menstruation give way to melodramatizations of the kind of sex-education every pubescent child needs.
