Programme Overview

Description

The year is 1985 and 15-year-old Lena lives with her mother Åsa in the picturesque, but sleepy little town of Braxinge in the middle of Sweden. Lena is about to graduate from junior high and has dreams of going on to a language course in Hastings, but Åsa, being a single mother, can’t afford it.

Lena’s grandmother, Barbro, would like to help, but knowing the complicated relationship between her mother and grandmother, Lena decides instead to take a job at the local porn print shop. Before we know it, Lena is involved in a scheme selling discarded porno magazines, Åsa is hitchhiking to Greece to find love and Barbro has a promising career writing erotic fiction.
