Thelma

Thelma (Eili Harboe) is a member of a small community, but she is so quiet her presence is barely noticeable. However, she has a powerful gift and her attraction to a fellow student (Kaya Wilkins) is only increasing its intensity. Joachim Trier (Oslo, August 31st, Louder Than Bombs) could have echoed Brian De Palma’s penchant for blood and frenzy, but instead creates a drama suffused with eroticism.
