Writer/director Joachim Trier crafts a haunting tale of Thelma (Eili Harboe), a shy college student who has just left her religious family in a small Norway town and finds herself intensely drawn to her classmate Anja (Kaya Wilkins). But in a surprising twist to this coming-of-age tale, first love and self-discovery arrive with uncontrollable seizures and supernatural powers that force her to confront the terrifying implications.

Filmmaker Bio: Joachim Trier is a Norwegian director and writer, born in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1974. Trier is the son of Jacob Trier, who was the sound technician of The Hinchcliffe Grand Prix (1975), and grandson of the Norwegian filmmaker Erik Løchen.
