Snacken (2004)

Sep 23, 2004 N/A TV Movie Drama

Two sixteen-year-old girls, Sanne and Clarissa, are invited to a party by one of their brothers. The girls have done their best to dress appropriately, but when they arrive at the party it turns out that they are completely underdressed and, moreover, by far the youngest. Afterwards they visit a snack bar, where suddenly a nice boy Sanne had met that morning enters the supermarket. 'Snacken' is a subtle story, in which it is not so much about the story, but about the exchanges of glances between two 16-year-old girlfriends, in which vulnerability and bravura compete for priority.
