🎬Norway Series: Norwegian High School Youth Drama
🇳🇴Norway: «VGS»
📸Introduction:
How far are you willing to go to get into the inner circle - whether it's just an idea or a lie?
Amalie and Josef must spend their first year of high school in VGS. They are older, their daily lives are harder, and the consequences are more serious.
It can be seen as a Nordic version of a youth campus drama. The background of the American high school drama on Netflix is ​​changed to Norway. This is probably what it feels like. To be honest, I personally think it's pretty good. The color tone and BGM of Nordic dramas will continue to add points to me. As for the plot, it depends on personal opinion. In fact, it's just a campus drama, and there is no profound intention, but it's really fun to watch it.
🎬Icelandic movies with beautiful scenery
🇮🇸Iceland: «Horses and People»
📸Introduction: The story is about the lives of horses and people, looking at the world from the perspective of horses, and showing the interdependence between people and animals.
💐It is a wonderful feeling. The feeling conveyed by Icelandic movies is completely different from that of the other four Nordic countries. Against the cold background, it tells a pastoral and tender story. It is a very unique feeling. Personally, I like this movie very much. I especially recommend it on weekend nights. Turn off all the lights, light a candle, cover yourself with a small blanket, and watch it quietly in the living room. It is a weekend gift from Iceland. It is very enjoyable.
🇮🇸Iceland: «Breathing Normally» | 01
📸Introduction:
Iceland, a vast country with a sparse population, has only about 300,000 citizens. However, about 8 million people transit through Iceland every year. Against this backdrop, on the edge of Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula, two women's lives briefly intersect, while being trapped in unforeseen circumstances. A struggling Icelandic mother and an asylum seeker from Guinea-Bissau, a West African country, will form a delicate bond as both develop strategies to get their lives back on track.
☃️Breathing Normally, this translation reminds me of a song by Leslie Cheung - «Heartbeat Breathing Normally», a very nice song, which makes people feel warm and a thin layer of sadness after listening to it, just like how this movie feels to me. This is a movie surrounded by warmth and love in the world.
Although the plot is indeed a bit flat, I personally feel that it is still very good. I recommend it to friends who like Nordic style and scenery!
▶A healing light comedy that you must watch while eating❗❗
🇬🇧UK: «Try»
📸Introduction:
- Jason and Nikki are a couple who really want to be parents, but they have a lot of difficulties in conceiving a child. In order to realize their idea of ​​wanting a baby, they chose to adopt and faced a series of problems brought about by the adoption process.
24 authors, 24 short films, focusing on 24 hours of women's lives
🇫🇷France: «24 hours in women's lives»
📸24 short films, 24 authors, 24 actresses and 10 directors, short films focus on discrimination and violations against women in all aspects
📹H24 tells the plight of women around the world every hour of the day and night through a series of short films inspired by real events.
💐These stories are disturbing, but they are more terrifying because of their mediocrity. The protagonists of the stories may be around you and me, or you and me.
▷But H24 is not just a story of women succumbing to violence and death.
Even in these events that are common enough for every woman to resonate, it still tells the story of those unyielding souls who resist, struggle, condemn and fight after suffering. As women, we look directly at the pain, and we can also stand up to defend every woman who suffers. We can also be the ones to break the silence and take women’s destiny into their own hands.
🎬Nordic Series⑩: Nordic Youth Campus Drama❗
🇫🇮Finland: «Portrait of a Girl»
📸Introduction: Mimi repeatedly clashes and gets into trouble in the girl group, but Leke is always confused about who she can love. Emma, ​​who is about to face a big competition, has practiced skating for many years, but has never been able to overcome the most difficult moves. In the coming three weeks, the three of them seem to experience a series of shaking and spinning times.
🎅🏻Through smart photography and music, the intimacy and grudges unique to girls are vividly portrayed. The three young actors each have distinct personalities, subtly projecting desires, parent-child and interpersonal problems, and throwing the audience to the ordering counter, the skating rink, the party dance floor, and the lonely night of the city again and again. As the film dances, it seems to revisit the warmth of youth and the unfinished life trajectory.
🇬🇧UK: «The Second Half of Life»
📸Introduction: This drama is written, directed and starred by Ricky Gervais. The story is set in the fictional town of Tambury. Tony is a writer for a local newspaper. After his wife died of cancer, his life changed dramatically.
She Said: We are all the most amazing women!!
🇺🇸USA: «She Said»
📸Introduction: The story focuses on New York Times female reporters Jodi Cantor (Zoe Kazan) and Megan Tohe (Carey Mulligan), who jointly wrote the most important report of this generation, which triggered the #MeToo movement, not only exposing the truth of sexual assault that Hollywood has condoned for decades, but also forever changed American culture. The film is adapted from the best-selling book "She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement".
💐An impressive short review, shared with everyone: "Don't forget that the delayed justice for women is all bumped out by themselves, and only after bumping their heads and bleeding can they see a little hope."
-This British drama is a psychological therapy for me💜
🇬🇧UK: «Stage Play»
📸Introduction: It tells the story of an upcoming stage play that was suspended due to the epidemic. During the lockdown, the actors also tried their best to continue rehearsing. The production team of this play followed the latest government guidelines on the new crown epidemic and adopted selfie and video conferencing technology to ensure safe and reliable production.
The most surprising atypical spy drama
🇬🇧British: «The Exiles»
▷It is not a traditional spy film, the plot is compact and the highlights and excitement are linked together. It is the best American drama I have seen in January, and in my heart it even surpasses Andor.
🇬🇧UK: "Lady Parts"
🛣️Introduction: The story focuses on the Muslim punk band "Lady Parts", whose members include nerdy doctoral student, lead guitarist Amina Hussein, and fierce and mysterious lead singer Saira. Amina is eager to find a husband, and Saira uses this as a bargaining chip, saying that as long as Amina joins the band, she will help her arrange a date. Amina has never seen such a group of girls, and soon immersed in their joy of breaking the rules.
🎸Muslim + punk, the impact of these two elements is enough to watch. It feels like a typical British youth drama. Although the theme has nothing to do with love, it tells the process of five girls exploring and discovering themselves together. In fact, I think the biggest feature of this drama is that it is funny, really really funny!
🎬🌈North American version: The story of turning a straight school girl into a lesbian❗
🇺🇸USA: Everything Sucks!
📸Introduction:
#The story takes place in 1996 when videotapes were popular. In a town called Bolin, the high school students in the audio-visual and drama clubs were independent and tried to cope with the uncontrollable emotions that burst out during their growth, and bravely faced the ups and downs of teenage life.
🎬Nordic series: LGBT unique to Iceland🌈
🇮🇸Iceland: «Heart Stone»
🌲Introduction: In a remote fishing village in Iceland, two boys who are as close as brothers begin to face growth and awakening. One of the boys falls in love with a girl, while the other boy discovers that he has another layer of feelings for his best friend. This is an unforgettable summer, wandering stone fish, I hope you will never be caught again.
🎅🏻This is a movie with extremely clean tones. After watching it in the afternoon, I was immersed in a sense of illusion all day. On the azure seashore, several teenagers went fishing together at the pier, enjoying the rare sunshine in Iceland. Behind the looming light and shadow, the ambiguous relationship between the two boys surfaced. You love him, he loves her, and the stone fish thrown back into the water swims to the depths.
The most unpopular American TV series that you should not miss❗❗
🇺🇸USA: "The Swarm"
📸This show is really, really, really good!!! It has a bit of the tone of "Atlanta". When I saw Donald Glover was one of the main creators, I knew that this show was sure to be a success. He is so talented, so talented!!! The plot is so mysterious and crazy, but also has depth. It is short and exquisite, and the metaphors are played too well.
▷Top 10 series: Super highly recommended silly comedy❗❗
British drama: "Delhi Girls"
🎅🏼I laughed like crazy. This is a British drama that is even more precious than "Jane's Difference"! Every character in the drama is so cute. It is a silly comedy that brought me infinite happiness. I really recommend it! ! ! I don't want it to end, just like I don't want TBBT to end!
🎬Nordic Series : Favorite Nordic Comedy
🇫🇮Finland: "Dead Leaves"
🎅🏼The picture quality of the last century is matched with modern content, which gives a sense of nostalgia. Every time I watch Kaurismäki's movies, I feel the same sense of security and happiness. BTW, the Russian-Ukrainian war was integrated into the street comedy, which is great! ! !
💐The story tells about two lonely people who meet by chance at night in Helsinki and try to find the first, only and final love in each other's lives. This is a unique Nordic romance, and love flows in silence. The dream linkage with Jarmusch is really fun to watch! ! !
🎬Nordic Series : Swedish version of "Fleabag"❗❗❗
🇸🇪Sweden: "Love Me"
🎅🏼The sister series of "Fleabag", "Fleabag in Sweden", is unexpectedly good to me. When I talked to a friend, she said it was a textbook of the same theme, which is not an exaggeration. I was also quite surprised that Swedes can also write dramas. It's really fun to watch Swedish comedies! !
Free Women, highly recommended to all women
🇫🇷France: "Free Women"
Use reason to face and think about some seemingly normal and common phenomena, such as the popularity of hair removal. Most Asian countries follow Europe and the United States, and hair removal has become popular, but they have never deeply investigated that the popularity in Europe and the United States is ultimately the poison of patriarchal society.
British TV series: "Jane's Difference"
🎬This is a familiar and happy sitcom that has been long-lost since "The Big Bang Theory". As we all know, this is a "colorful" treasure British TV series, with a huge imagination but also very cute~ The cast has a bit of "Stranger Things" feeling
🎬🌈Nordic Series ⑤: Le Sweet Drama
🇸🇪Sweden: "No Remedy"
🎄As usual, you can look at the above photos first. If you like this style, then go and watch it! Don't hesitate!! Norway's (lesbian) sweet drama will not disappoint you
🚤Super decompression super sweet campus drama, but also a super funny brainless comedy!! It's no exaggeration to say that when I watched the first episode, I almost rolled off the bed with laughter. It felt like I found a treasure.
🎬🌈Nordic Movie List: Must-see Sweet Dramas on Weekends❗❗❗
Sweden: "Too Damn Easy to Get Along"
📸Introduction: 18-year-old Joanna has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In her mind, thoughts are spinning like an amusement park in peak season. After her father suffered from depression, his sick leave salary could only barely pay the rent and could no longer afford her medication. In order to solve this problem, Joanna had to find another way to save money. In the chaos, the charming and confident Audrey appeared, adding another "instability factor" to Joanna's already complicated and changeable life.
🎬Nordic series: I wish you always pursue freedom
Norway: "The Worst Person in the World"
"We just need others for a short time to get through our disordered lives."
This movie makes me feel so comfortable, smooth and comfortable, with almost no sense of disobedience, combining Nordic aesthetics and feminism just right. The Norwegian glaciers like blue wallpapers, women who have full autonomy to choose, the viewing experience of the movie is simply great!!!
In fact, many times what we call "following our hearts" is fictional, an illusion, or an excuse. We don't understand what our hearts really want. But it is so important to follow your heart and do what makes you happy. At least for me.
Nordic Series①: All girls should watch it❗️❗️
Norway: "Ninja Baby"
It was a bit surprising. The theme was originally quite dramatic and a bit heavy, but it was filmed so relaxed, a bit like Heartstopper. The plot was interspersed with super cute ninja baby cartoons, and coupled with the very clean Nordic color scheme, the viewing experience was extremely smooth and comfortable.
(I really found that in Norway, whether it is movies or TV series, it is great for women to watch!!! Their equal rights movement has long been infiltrated from "slogans" into every bit of life. This kind of unintentional expression is the most comfortable!)
