Well, I think the synopsis writer and everyone else have got it wrong. Erik is played by a thirteen-year old as is Sofie. But the actor playing Arend was thirty five when this film was made and he looks it. Can't people tell ages? He's not a "hunkier teen"! He's Sofie's father, for goodness sake.
Despite Sofie's interest in Erik, he's more interested in Dad. The beauty of this film is that Dad knows it and is unfazed.
We don't get to see the drawing Erik did until the end of the story, but we should have guessed. It's an impossible infatuation, of course, but all the sweeter for not having been acted upon.
This was a definite recommend.
