The last events for today’s Pulse is a movie at Cinemateket. Cinemateket is a part of the Norwegian Film Institute and has a project called “Contemporary Norway”, Almost each Thursday they show a Norwegian movie with the English subtitles. This Thursday it’s a documentary “Girls” by Hanne Myren. A documentary about the toughest girls in the 9th grade. About youthful presumption, loyalty, deceit, and female power structures at an age when everything is at stake. The film focuses on two groups of girls at a school in central Oslo: the tough gang, and the less daring girls from the west side. One girl is stuck between the two groups. Will she be forced to choose between the two gangs, decide which friends to abandon, and which identity to assume?
