A student strike at a Danish boys school paired with a budding young gay romance are the backdrops for 'You Are Not Alone', a landmark 1978 film from directors Lasse Nielsen and Ernst Johansen. 15-year-old Bo, a shy student at the boarding school and Kim, the son of the stern headmaster form a friendship that starts to turn romantic. Meanwhile, mounting school tensions over the expulsion of a troubled student explore the rebellious political attitude of youth in the 70s. Directors Lasse Nielsen and Ernst Johansen chose to create a film with these two radical themes to great effect with depth and candor. Their sensitive handling of controversial themes makes 'You Are Not Alone' a groundbreaking treatment of sexual liberation and the power of each individual voice, no matter how young or old.
