About This Movie

Them and Us is a raw exploration of adolescent rebellion and the harsh realities of suburban life. The film captures the restless energy of Lasse and Geir, two boys navigating their fragmented home lives after a night in jail. The pacing is deliberate, reflecting their internal struggles as they face the fallout from their reckless actions. There’s a palpable sense of tension and disillusionment, especially in the performances, which convey a haunting authenticity. The themes of abandonment and environment are strikingly portrayed, with a grittiness that lingers long after it’s over. It's one of those films that, while not widely known, resonates with those who appreciate deeper character studies and societal critiques.

Them and Us has had a limited release history, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. Its scarcity lies in the lack of mainstream popularity, yet those who seek it often appreciate the film's exploration of adolescence and societal issues. There aren’t many official home media releases, which adds to its intrigue among cinephiles looking for unique narratives that challenge conventional storytelling.
