Young teenager Bo (Anders Agensø) is too sensitive for the hothouse atmosphere of a boarding school run by a cold, unfeeling would-be man of the cloth (an uncharacteristically grim Ove Sprogøe). Lonely and scared, he finds a soul mate in the headmaster's son (Peter Bjerg) and the two boys form a bond that slowly grows into a sexual relationship. Frank and unadorned, this Danish film concluded director Lasse Nielsen's youth-oriented trilogy that began with La' Os Være (1975) and continued with Måske Ku' Vi (1976). ~ Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi

Notes
If I'm going to watch a 1978 film about Danish kids at a private boarding school, I expect a little more angst (isn't that important to teenage films)· There were plenty of script opportunities, but I never felt them· A pleasant little film, though· I see I added it to my catalog in 2016; wasn't missing much.
