A 1998 movie about growing up gay in a small town (Åmål), the story focuses on two teenage girls who fall in love and what they have to do in order to be together. It was highly influential and most people can still quote extensively from it.
If you want to know what it was like to grow up as a teenager in a small town in Sweden where there is nothing to do but drink and play around with a moped, I would recommend it. Shit, even if you have no interest in that what so ever, watch it for the great soundtrack, implied female masturbation and late 1990’s fashion (hint: plaid shirts). Right now it seems as though the entire movie is on YouTube, with English subtitles.
