As If We Were Somebody Else
15-year-old Nike is torn between her wish of belonging to the cool clique around her friend Jess and individual autonomy, which to her is represented by her new friend Lea. When she takes Lea along to a party she does not know how to react to the competing friends - resulting in her not reacting at all. - The film deals with mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion the disorientation of young girls, whose identities are rather theatrically claimed then actually realized – a Brechtian teen drama.
