Synopsis

We Are the Best! is a story of three young misfit girls growing up in the early ‘80s Stockholm. Pixieish, mohawk-sporting Klara and her best friend Bobo are 13-year-old rebels looking for a cause. Despite having no instruments—or discernible musical talent—the two put all their energy into forming an all-girl punk band, recruiting their shy, classical guitar-playing schoolmate Hedwig as a third wheel. With tender affection for its young characters, We Are the Best! paints a joyous and sharply observant portrait of the rebellious spirit of youth and growing up different.

awesome. For anyone who grew up feeling awkward, alienated and rebellious, it really does capture that time perfectly. It reminded me how intense the emotions are, how strong the embarrassment is and how weird adults are when you're young and new. Great movie and the real deal. These kids are also cooler at 14 than we'll ever be.
