Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for people who love a good growing-up story and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 33 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • It's in Danish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Two teen boys meet each other in Copenhagen and team up to find one of the boys' mother. Instead they end up finding themselves - and each other.
