User review:

Saw this at Frameline41 Festival in San Francisco last month. Don’t understand why it didn’t have more showings. It was VERY good. Very funny. Sexy, well written and acted. Everything made sense.

I hope Wolfe Video picked it up, because this should be on everybody’s wish list. Grab it however you can.

    Screwed (2017)
    DVD Blurb by Rob Boyte
    February 26, 2024

    This DVD came from my online search of obscure foreign-made gay male focused movies. This is the first Finnish comedy, drama, romance movie I’ve seen and it seemed a bit chaotic to me, with two young adult brothers throwing a Rave party, trashing their parent’s home and their neurotic mother (Sanna Majuri) going completely off the rails. Do Fins actually do that kind of stuff?

    Storyline from Online:
    “Screwed (orig. Pihalla) is a Finnish drama film, where seventeen year olds Miku (Mikko Kauppila) and Elias (Valtteri Lehtinen) find themselves, and each other, during a summer in the Finnish countryside. Love is not as easy as it seems.”

    Apparently, “homo” is not as derogatory in Finland as it was in earlier years (as portrayed in the Danish movie “Tom of Finland,” also 2017). When the lead teen Miku comes out to his brother & parents, it was taken as matter-of-fact, without any great grief.

    As with many foreign films, this one is not rated but seems to be PG-13. No nudity shown but implied with the teens skinny dipping and having their clothes stolen by Elias’ sister. The same as with the sex scene, all above the waist.

    The summer relationship between the two leads is often bickering and confrontational but they do have their tender moments. A part of formulaic romantic dramas, but this seems more a North European trend in gay movies.

    It isn’t my best foreign gay male romantic drama, but satisfying for a coming out, first infatuation affair.
