There’s something wonderfully fresh almost subversive, really about a film in which teenage girls speak about sex and obsess over it and crave it as openly as boys. Funny, embarrassing and poignant without ever seeming leering or exploitative. The way salty-sweet comedy TURN ME ON, DAMMIT! treats the hormone-addled turmoil of its heroine Alma feels something close to revolutionary.
TURN ME ON, DAMMIT! is a whimsical and refreshingly honest coming of age story about the blossoming sexuality of a teenage girl. Alma (Helene Bergsholm) is consumed by her out-of-control hormones and fantasies that range from sweetly romantic images of Artur, the boyfriend she yearns for, to down-and-dirty daydreams about practically everybody she lays eyes on.
