Totally True Love

In a sleepy Norwegian town where childhood lore hangs as thick as the mist, a new family moves into the old house on the hill—rumored to hide a lingering spirit from a tragic love story. The arrival of the mysterious boy who inhabits that house sends ripples through the lives of the local children, turning ordinary school days into a delicate dance of curiosity and whispered speculation. The community’s quiet streets and the schoolyard’s tight‑knit cliques create a backdrop that feels both familiar and subtly unsettling, inviting the audience to wonder what is real and what is the product of youthful imagination.

Anne is a ten‑year‑old who proudly trades princess dresses for a soldier’s uniform, a choice that colors the way she sees the world and shapes her cautious outlook on matters of the heart. Her best friend, Beate, offers a warm counterpoint—bright, inquisitive, and convinced that love, even at their age, can be genuine and transformative. Their friendship becomes the core through which the story explores the tension between skepticism and hope, as they navigate the swirl of rumors, school dynamics, and the allure of the newcomer, Jørgen, whose quiet presence awakens feelings Anne has never allowed herself to entertain.

Adding another layer to the mix is Ellen, the popular classmate whose own ambitions intersect with the growing intrigue surrounding the haunted house and the boy who lives there. Meanwhile, Ole, Anne’s older brother, adds a voice of local legend, recalling the old tale of Helga—a girl whose love and disappearance have become a cautionary whisper among the townsfolk. Together, these characters form a tapestry of youthful perspective, where the line between superstition and reality blurs, setting the stage for a story that balances gentle humor, tender moments, and a lingering sense of mystery.
