Hey, remember how I loved Kings of Summer but lamented the lack of coming-of-age movies with girls as the main subjects? It turns out that Sweden is on it, with middle school girls and punk rock, rather than high school and the outdoors. While being incredibly fun and heartfelt, this movie also captures a lot of nuance of girl-as-friend relationships, especially during the middle school, jockeying-for-position time period.
