Synopsis

Stockholm 1982. A film about Bobo, Klara and Hedvig. Three 13-year old girls who roam the streets. Who are brave and tough and strong and weak and confused and weird. Who have to take care of themselves way too early. Who heat fish fingers in the toaster when mom is at the pub. Who start a punk band without any instruments, even though everybody says that punk is dead. Provocative Swedish auteur Lukas Moodysson (Show Me Love, Together) returns with this raucous and ebullient tale of three preteen outcasts who form an all-girl punk band. Based on a graphic novel, We are the Best! is a paean to DIY culture and the need for revolt, propelled by a skilled ensemble cast led by the three young principals, who make everything from fights over the same boy to your first public spew utterly poignant. Screened in Swedish language with English Subtitles.
