The two psychology students Sara and Simon believe they have identifed the reason behind the loneliness of our modern western society. They conclude that our need for self-realization through consumption leaves us with a sense of meaninglessness. An experiment is initiated and they gather a group of young people in an isolated house in the countryside. During the stay in the house, Simon gradually becomes a sovereign leader. What started out as a field study gradually turns into something more similar to a cult.
Öyvind
A film about a group of people and their complicated relationships to one another. Vera is trying to figure out how to relate to her son's irresponsible father, while her sister is about to release a book about their shared childhood. Not far from Vera, a professional clown is hesitantly trying to get on with his life and form a new relationship, but his ex is refusing to let go of him. In close shots, full of emotions, the characters expose the best as well as the worst in them, and the film provides no simple answers to its questions.

Cuando Emma conoce a Cassandra, comienzan una relación llena de desafíos físicos y psicológicos. Emma trata de hacer lo que sea para dominar las reglas del juego. Las líneas se cruzan y los riesgos se vuelven cada vez más altos. A pesar de esto, Emma no puede resistir el sentimiento intoxicante de control total. Según su directora Lisa Aschan, “She Monkeys juega con las reglas que rodean a la conducta humana. Me interesa explorar las contradicciones de la sociedad permitiendo a mujeres jóvenes llevar a cabo acciones brutales. Mostrar estos temas tabú en contraste con lo inocente y lo que parece ingenuo. El foco de la historia es el juego de poder entre dos adolescentes y el mundo que las rodea. Están en constante competencia. Van y vienen, controlando y controladas. Me interesa retratar la duplicidad y la incertidumbre. Representar a la gente como individuos, pero también como parte de una estructura mucho mayor”. (FILMAFFINITY)
