Finnish film that got audience award from Sundance this year.
So i was definitely interested in watching this one.
It's always really nice when finnish films get international attention.
I was really surprised how much I loved this.
Original title is Tytöt Tytöt Tytöt.
When translated that is quite literally Girls Girls Girls.
I don't necessarily know why they didn't keep that as title.
Because in this story three is quite important number.
Three girls.
Three fridays.
I find it really interesting how this story is mostly happening during three evenings.
Lot of things happens during those weeks between these three separate fridays.
Three different situations and problems that these girls have.
Mimmi who is having problems with her mental health and is searching her identity.
She also has family problems.
She is played by Aamu Milonoff.
Another actor from Milonoff family.
Her father is actor whose brothers are actors and tv persons in Finland.
Atleast i can tell her apart from other Milonoff's.
Then there is Emma who has been figure skater for almost her whole life.
She is getting ready for really important competition.
But she is having problems with one jump.
She is played by Linnea Leino.
Then there is Rönkkö who is searching her sexuality and love.
She doesn't feel passion from sex.
She is played by Eleonoora Kauhanen.
Really amazing performances.
I have heard that director Alli Haapasalo has taken some inspiration from Booksmart.
I can kinda feel that in this.
Really interesting story about coplex relationships between different young characters.
Everything felt so natural and real.
Like young people's really talk like this in Finland.
Really modern language is used.
I'm boy around same age than characters in this film.
Setting is Finland's capital city Helsinki.
I live just about 100 kilometers to north in smaller village.
So i feel that i haven't lived that similiar youth.
But i can still feel that this film was about suprisingly universal things.
I seriously got little bit emotional in the end.
Please, finnish filmmakers!
Make more this high quality films.
I really loved this.
