Ulla Heikkilä sends her cast to summer camp and skillfully juggles a handful of the most recognizable teen moods. In her homoerotic storyline she sets up an approaching make-out scene with an admirable patience. The movie gets an extra gear of conviction through the camp leader, played by Tommi Korpela, who is so strong in his delivery that I suspect he was determined to boost his co-stars to shine a bit extra. And they do exactly that. Main character Aamu Milonoff's delightfully uncomplicated aura sends warm vibrations through the screen every time she's on. The writer director also makes one of the big mistakes. She designs a heroine with a lover and ignores that the audience must approve or they'll hate being on her journey. An easily made mistake when cynically squeezing in political viewpoints into entertainment.
