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
- Best for people who love a good growing-up story and anyone who likes secrets inside secrets. It gets the awkwardness and the high stakes of being young. Fans of God's Own Country or Once should feel right at home. Nobody is quite who they seem.
- The mood
- Warm and romantic.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 28 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in Swedish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if romance makes you roll your eyes.
Olle, an introverted, well-mannered boy with an air of innocence and sincerity about him has been camping with his father at the same camping ground with several other people for years now. A sort of tradition that ends in a karaoke party. Then one summer, a family friend brings her reticent 'city boy' nephew, Kevin, and his pet budgerigar. Olle accidentally releases the bird and what follows is a discovery of friendship and love between the guy who has grown up in a loving environment and simply accepts love for what it is and the guy who's apparently been burned too many times in his own circle to feel comfortable with it.
