Rating: 5.7
Cast: Susanne Juhász, Mira Wanting, Thomas Levin

With the possible exception of love interest Sebastian (played by Levin), virtually all the male characters in this movie are depicted as selfish and complete b******s. (Chick flic Rule No. 1?)

Two sisters meet again after four years. One walked out on the other before a kidney transplant, so naturally they don't hit it off right away. Circumstances during a birthday party changes things somewhat, and they move in together and start going out, mainly to find the perfect guy for one of them.

A paperthin premise, but surprisingly realistic and compelling, thanks to Susanne Juhasz' winning and sincere performance. Mira Wanting plays the other self-centered sister. Stand-up comedians Mick Øgendahl and Carsten Bang appear in pointless cameos.

Not for all tastes, but funny and played with conviction. Juhasz' disastrous date with Nicolas Bro is as hilarious as it is embarrassing. Incidentally, alternate ending (available on DVD) changes film's message completely!

Danish cinema is renowned for its intimate focus on character and moral complexity, often framed with naturalistic performances and understated visual style. It has balanced art-house innovation, such as the Dogme 95 movement, with popular storytelling that explores family, community, and ethical dilemmas. Danish filmmakers often examine how personal choices collide with collective responsibility, giving even small-scale stories a sense of moral weight and cultural reflection.
