The 16-year old Ninni lives with her slightly neurotic parents and her two younger siblings. Everything is fine until her parents get in the middle of a financial crisis, risking to lose everything they own. Coincidentally, the attractive refugee Ramon appears and turns upside down on Ninni's life. But is he really interested in her? Or is something going on between him and Ninni's mother when no one's watching? At the same time Ninni's parents are starting to get desperate to solve their economic situation. How far are they willing to go to save the family? Will Ramon turn Ninni's parents into bank robbers? And what will Ninni do when the thing that can't happen, happens... (official distributor synopsis)

A film with a unique theme and decent execution, and I decided to generously accept and didn't have a major problem with it the somewhat far-fetched story about how a middle-class couple, under the threat of foreclosure on their house, veered off course and decided to solve their financial situation through bank robberies. It's not exactly a typical Scandinavian film, partly because one of the main roles is played by a boy from Colombia, and it's also not a typical family conflict, but I enjoyed it well enough and thanks to the acting of the cast and capable direction, I consumed the film without any difficulties. Overall impression: 60%.
