Beauty and the Bastard
A modern Finnish film about two extremely different young adults who meet and fall in love after making music together. Nellis wants to be a singer despite her parents' plans. She meets the young, grungy Hip Hop musician Sunen at the studio and asks him to help her prepare a demo tape. The story about differences growing closer and overcoming challenges is wonderfully told. The music is great too. It's incredible that this is the director's debut film.
