Based on a book of the same name about a 15 year old girl Alma's sexual fantasies. A simple story for a silly reason takes place in a small Norwegian village. Occasionally, additional scenes that try to merge with the main story stream are totally a diversion to the viewers. Sometime what is real and what is fiction are too hard to differentiate from each other. Especially this whole story happens in the backdrop of an incident that takes place in the beginning of the movie. For that, to make clear to ourselves, we have to wait till the end where it explains. But still I am not sure whether it is a real or fantasy of Alma.The story is set in a small town called Skoddeheimen located somewhere in Norway. A teenager, Alma is attracted to her classmate Artur and she filled with sex fantasies about him. One day at a party, her long pending desire gets fulfilled when she makes out the night with Artur. So she tells that to her two close friends, but they deny it as they are jealous of it. The relationship end there and friendship with Artur too. She's been outcasted by her schoolmates, instantly she's been teased by calling dick-Alma. As one side, she is obsessed with fantasies and other side bad remarks against her, will she rise from all these is what remaining portraits.Yeah, kinda chick movie, but without any regret I enjoyed it. It was just like the American movies about teenagers problems that they face in their school except it was not lousy. That mean not like a commercial movie where a protagonist rises from the ground with a master plan and take a revenge. More like a reality in presentation with nice characters and shot in a beautiful place. In other word, it is exactly same movie to Kristen Stewart's 'Speak' but story travels in the opposite direction with comedy as its genre.7.5/10

When it comes to teen sex comedies it is usually from a guy or group of guys perspective. Very rarely do you get a story that deals with the female side. American films have trouble talking about female sexuality, especially in teenagers. Our repressed society likes to keep things hidden from the so-called impressionable people that it is affecting, because it is just so uncomfortable. Really? The Norwegian film "Turn Me On Dammit!" is brilliant in its frankness and honesty without being exploitive or gratuitous. This film is comprised of non professional actor and touches on themes and issues that are very universal when it comes to teenage life.Alma is a 15 year old girl, who lives with her mother in a very small Norwegian town called Skoddeheimen. Like many small towns all over the world it is incredibly boring and she can't wait to leave and start a real life. It is so boring in fact that her mother works at a local turnip processing factory. She is friends with Sara, a dark haired anti-establishment type girl who dreams of moving to Texas and abolishing capital punishment. Sara's sister Ingrid has and addiction to lip gloss and doesn't really care for Alma, since they like the same guy. The guy in question is Artur and he is the most popular kid in school.We venture into Alma's mind and see her fantasies played out on screen, but then are jolted back to reality. During a party at the community center everything changes when Alma and Artur are alone outside and her pokes her with his ding dong. Alma goes back inside and blabs to her friends about what happen and they think she is making it up, then Artur denies the whole thing. This makes Alma a perv and an outcast at school. It doesn't take long for the news to get around town and to her mother. Alma's mother also confronts her with a huge phone bill that has Alma calling phone sex lines. The scene that opens the movie involves one of these calls and is very reminiscent of the opening of "American Pie" except from a female angle. Alma is dealing with issues common to all teenagers no matter where you live. So she runs off to Oslo and meets up with Sara's older sister and her friends where she is able to take everything into perspective and realizes that this will all pass and the day will come when she will become her own woman. Filmmaker Jannike Systad Jacobson, in her debut film, brings a real heartfelt honest to the story and its characters.This movie might be a little hard to find but is available through Netflix and Amazon and is definitely worth a look.

This film deeply effected me since I had many experiences in the same flavor as Alma as a teenager, and to this day have never seen or read anything that describes the specific pain of those years until now.I felt that this film very clearly and artistically outlined the double-standard that still exists, even in a relatively feminist country like Norway. Even 30 years after the sexual revolution of the 1960s, it is still taboo for young girls to be fascinated by their own pleasure and sexuality, even though it is expected for boys to experiment early and often. This film tells a tale which is rarely told so honestly, and instead of painful its gorgeous, smart and funny, set in a beautiful landscape with a dreamy soundtrack. The film is shot in lush colors, with cute humor... well, I big dose of cute (which I am typically allergic to), but this film won me over, big time.

This movie was awesome! I don't know if I've seen anything like it, ever. So real. I totally recommend it, especially if you're a young female like me. It'll make SO much sense to you.Boys might not be as hip to it, but who really cares LOL. Honestly, though, teenage sexuality {especially for females in whom it's widely abject-ified} and sexual expression can bring up so much emotional baggage that I was afraid to watch this film at first. I'm so glad that I did though, because yes, it did address loaded topics yada yada yada, but with a lighthearted and humorous delivery. Beautiful landscapes, additionally. AWESOME. WATCH IT! :)
