Not really sure what the story here is. It starts out as a movie about a dancer, but it turns out she keeps falling. We find out she has some issues with either her stepfather or her father, it isn't very clear. She is part of some religious cult which makes you feel "hm, this cult kind of sucks." Then she joins another cult, that cult sucks too. The movie suddenly ends.

I much agree with the reviews written by JohnFilmFreak and bente_rogne.

I think the beginning of the movie is very good and interesting, about a young girl being a champion dancer but struggling with bulimia. But then the focus changes to her very religious family, and a very creepy stepfather. Which is also interesting; it just gets too much and we never really learn anything about anything,a dn move constantly changes its focus.

Overall the acting is great; it's nice to see Josefine Frida move on from her character of Noora and does so convincingly. None of the adults are very likable. But acting is good.

I think the "attack-scene" towards the end of the movie was distasteful. Way too similar to what actually happened at Utøya at 2011 when 69 people were killed.

This film is about a dancer. Or, not really. It's more about this dancer's relationship with her family. But not really that either. Actually, it's about religion. And as it turns out, the whole dancer and her family is kinda irrelevant.

And herein lies the problem: Writer/director Jorunn Myklebust Syversen starts out the movie with one theme, then moves on to another, and then another, and another... without giving us a reaction or conclusion to any of them. It's almost like the first episode of a tv-show, where we're presented with one brooding conflict after the other, before we simply move on to the next thing. But as there is no second episode and the story never follows up on any of these conflicts, we're left with a row of events sorely missing an dramatic arch, and the whole film feels like it's missing both the 2nd and 3rd act.

There is a very basic "law" in screenwriting called Chekhov's Gun, which states that: "If in the first act you have hung a pistol on the wall, then in the following one it should be fired." In other words: Every action need a reaction, and Jorunn Myklebust Syversen would greatly benefit from learning this simple lesson, so that her films would be more than just a string of loosely connected events.
