With a skillful eye and generous spirit, photographer and filmmaker Eva Marie Rødbro fashions an intimate and utterly unique view into the lives of various contemporary youths from her native Denmark to the American South. Her films remind us of the fervor, awkwardness and often painful experience of adolescent life while savoring the sweet, contemplative moments that are often overlooked in memories.
For her first ever in-person program in Los Angeles, Filmforum surveys Rødbro’s films made over the past eight years, showcasing her remarkable ability to construct intoxicating narratives from acutely recorded observations, and marked by a startling intimacy with her subjects. – Becca Keating, Los Angeles Filmforum, 2016
