Hello World

Hello World is a documentary following Runa (12), Viktor (12), Dina (13), and Joachim (14) through three of the most transformative years of lower secondary school. Told from their own perspectives, the film offers a glimpse into what it means to grow up queer in Norway today.

What goes through your mind when you’ve decided to come out, but your school asks you to wait so they can "prepare" the news first? How do you handle a teammate’s accusation that you’ve been looking too much in the locker room after practice? And how do you find a date for prom when you’re the only openly queer student at school?

Hello World is a heartfelt, engaging, and moving coming-of-age story about embracing who you are—even when you don’t fit in.
