Fucking Åmål (Show Me Love in English)
Agnes is 16, unpopular and in love with Elin, who's 14 and the hottest thing in school. Elin hates living in Åmål, a town so boring that when new things get popular, they're already on the "outdated trend" list in the rest of the world.

I love pretty much everything about this movie. The characters are wonderful (including the supporting cast. Agnes's dad in particular just makes me go <3333 with how much of a typical Swedish dad he is), the script is really good (subtitles are a little weirdly translated sometimes, but overall, they totally work) and this movie is basically my teen years put on film (well, not really mine, because I was a very well-behaved teen who stayed at home reading books and went to ping-pong nights at the local church, but other than that :)). On top of that, it's really funny and the ending always makes me go \o/.

See it. :)
