PATRIK, AGE 1.5

August 7th, 2010

PATRIK, AGE 1.5- Directed by Ella Lemhagen. Premise by Netflix. “After moving from the city to a small town, gay couple Sven (Torkel Petersson) and Goran (Gustaf Skarsgård) adopt a child. But when Patrik (Thomas Ljungman) arrives in their lives, it turns out he’s not 1.5 years old as they were told by the adoption agency — he’s a rebellious, homophobic 15-year-old. While the couple houses the angry boy until the mix-up is resolved, his presence causes them to reassess their lives.” Good review in NY Times.

1/11- I found this movie very real and very moving and I’d highly recommend it. TRDB. Netflix.
