WE ARE THE BEST!

Hilarious, tender, and shot through with palpable joy, this infectious coming-of-age story is a joyous celebration of friendship, punk, and, most of all, 13-year-old girls.

Coco, Klara, and Mathilda have been friends since primary school, where they first met in a folk dancing class. Now, they’re newly teenagers, their raw energy, rebellious spirit, and dreams of forming a world-beating punk band set them apart from the other girls at school. They can’t play any instruments, practice with pillows and pans, and keep getting told that punk is dead. But they’re not going to let any of that stop them!

Based on Coco Moodysson’s graphic novel, this story follows the trio as they rock out and take chances, fight and make up, and discover themselves amidst all the beautiful chaos and camaraderie—reminding us all that the only things you really need in life are your best friends, and three killer chords.
