Johanne falls in love for the first time, with her teacher. To preserve her feelings, she documents her emotions and experiences in writing. When her mother and grandmother read what she has written, they are initially shocked by its intimate content but soon see that it has literary potential. As they debate whether to publish it, Johanne navigates the gap between her romantic fantasy and reality, and all three women confront their differing views on love, sexuality, and self-discovery. Part of the SEX-DREAMS-LOVE trilogy of Norwegian novelist and writer-director Dag Johan Haugerud, the tender coming-of-age tale wins the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival.
