Saint Pauly

Like hating mirrors because every time you see one, it's holding up a picture of you. A teenager on his summer break tries to leave his painful childhood and bring his new girlfriend along. A beautifully constructed and filmed coming-of-age tale that was so well acted it reminded me of myself at that age; so, obviously I cringed throughout the entire film and wanted to hide in my seat from the shame.
