Show Me Love (Fucking Amal) Reviews
This powerful, funny romantic drama neatly integrates the dilemmas of a girl in love, the girl she loves, a boy who also loves that girl, and that girl's sister.
While the storyline has few surprises, the central performances create a touching relationship, despite the suspicion that the male writer/director's interest in the subject is slightly dubious, or at least tokenistic.
High school, small town, teenagers in hormone hell -- or is that heaven?

What keeps us watching are Liljeberg and Dahlström, both beautifully natural, and the hope that we'll get to see them together.
Right away this film grabs attention with documentary-style close- ups and upends teen movie cliches.

Moodysson creates a fictional world that has all the aesthetic rawness and grittiness of a documentary.
