Mia (Ruth Vega Fernandez) is about to marry Tim (Joakim Nätterqvist), but is thrown into emotional turmoil when she meets Frida (Liv Mjönes) at her father’s (Krister Henriksson) birthday party. When it comes to movies where adults walk out of the closet, In & Out (1997) contributed with a good sense of humor and made Hollywood history. This tale lacks an original touch. Suppressed gay love that suddenly finds a way to blossom is something we’ve seen before; this one has dialogue that becomes a little too obvious at times. Still, takes its subject seriously, the cast is fine and the look of the film is attractive.
