Team Hurricane

Meet Ida, Sara, Eja, Maja, Zara, Mathilde and Ira: a teen girl squad who grows tighter than ever when local politicians plan to close down the youth community centre. The youth club is their hideout from the outside world where they can draw, dance, chill, talk or just hang out and not talk at all. Team Hurricane is a punk chick flick that mixes highly stylized fictional elements with documentary material: loneliness, pussy- power, graffiti, vibrators, friendship, teddy bears, resting bitch face, art, fire, fear, bubble-gum, mom & dad, anorexia, homemade piercings, nail art, cherries, secret diaries and daydreaming. Radical girls in an ordinary world!
