Into the Blue
28” | 2023 | The National Film School of Denmark | TBR
12-year-old Tatheer embarks on a week-long Police boot camp for girls from a social housing estate in Copenhagen. Far from home, deep in the woods, she navigates gruelling rituals, elusive social dynamics, and personal setbacks to find her place in this tender and revealing coming-of-age story.
“poignant and deeply felt … a coming-of-age so special and personal that we cannot look away.”
