This film blew me away (pun intended). It deals with some heavy subject matter in a rather frank way, but also does so with such overwhelming charm. It reminded me a lot of Lars and the Real Girl in how it dealt with awkward sexual subjects but did so in such a sensitive and affirmed manner that you root for the main character and the filmmmakers. Easily one of the best films I've seen this year and jumped up high on my Top 10 List. Seek it out!

I liked it. Maybe that's because I'm a sucker for coming-of-age movies... but this one was very enjoyable, and I loved the subtle ending.

Turn Me On, Dammit! is a little indie Norwegian film about a disaffected teenage girl, Alma, struggling with a rather turbulent sexual awakening. This turns Alma into an outcast both at home and in school, but the heaviness of the subject matter is tempered by its whimsical treatment. Without you noticing, the film slips into Alma's sexual fantasies, and then jars you back to reality using editing punchlines. It's a delight, and Alma goes through a satisfying arc more naturally than most movie characters. Growing up is, in itself, momentous enough without resorting to outlandish plot contrivances (you be the judge if the final scene is fantasy or reality, and if reality, if it falls into clichéd tropes however). Finally, the film really gets the boredom of living in a small town, especially for teens, and is worthy on that basis alone.

@CSSCHNEIDER: Good comment, you got me to reflect on this film once more. Come to think of it, it is actually a film about sexual harassment and subsequent victim-blaming (even though this girl was horny all the time and I imagine her liking it, haha), which is a big topic of discussion in Scandinavia. What I liked about it was that you are never really sure whether something is really happening, or whether it just exists in Alma's imagination.
