Unbeknownst to his mother, 11-year-old Reine does not spend the summer at the holiday camp, but alone in the urban jungle of Stockholm. With a skateboard and tape recorder, to which he confides his fear of growing up, he wanders through the city, where he becomes involved in numerous encounters with adults.

The film deals with the transition from childhood to the adult world in a very vivid way.

Reviews

“[T] he fears [...], the rebelliousness of the pure and the experiences with his body and his feelings are convincingly presented. A serious film that will probably not have an easy time of it next to the many superficial teen films. "

- Anne Frederiksen, The Time
