A FILM BY Jannicke Systad Jacobsen

You'll be gladder to have seen this beguiling little film if you can find it.

- Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

Jacobsen's clever, compassionate treatment of Alma's romantic predicament involving Artur, her exhibitionist crush, comes from a perspective you virtually never see in American films.

- Sara Stewart, New York Post

"Turn Me On !" est un teen movie nordique rafraîchissant. (...) Une belle surprise.

La sexualité des adolescentes traitée avec tact et poésie...Vive la Norvège !

Synopsis

In this offbeat coming-of-age comedy, Alma is a small-town girl with a big imagination and an even bigger libido. Horny and looking for love, she has only her kindly phone sex operator to cure her boredom. After a titillating encounter with a school heartthrob, she gains the uncomfortable nickname “Dick Alma”, and that’s when her troubles begin. Winner of the Best Screenplay Award at the Tribeca Film festival, Turn Me On, Goddammit! perfectly balances candid sexual content with earnest teenage awkwardness.
