Synopsis
Un village montagnard en Norvège au XVII siècle. An-Magritt est née d'un viol. Attachée au pilori, sa mère se suicide en se jetant dans la rivière. Il revient au grand-père de prendre soin de l'enfant. Conçue dans la violence, c'est grâce à la charité qu'An-Magritt doit son salut. Elle n'a pourtant d'autre alternative que de travailler durement tout en subissant le froid et la faim au risque de sa vie. Dès son adolescence, la jeune femme acquiert une personnalité bien trempée, s'acquittant de tâches ordinairement dévolues aux hommes - convoyer du minerai et du charbon entre la mine et la fonderie, labourer pour assurer sa subsistance - et apprenant à lire. Sa beauté et son farouche caractère attirent l'attention d'un ingénieur allemand dont elle finit par s'éprendre. Alors que les conditions de vie et de travail sont déjà extrêmement pénibles pour les villageois, le chambellan Jochum, prétextant de graves difficultés, annonce de terribles restrictions.Actors

Laure is a 10-year-old child whose family moves to a new address in Paris. One day Laure sees a group of boys playing outside the window and goes to play with them, but they disappear quickly. Instead, Laure meets Lisa, a neighborhood girl, and Laure introduces himself as Mikäel. Lisa then introduces Mikäel to the rest of the neighborhood children stating that "he" is the new kid in the apartment complex. A bath scene in the film reveals that Mikäel has a vagina, and a following scene confirms that Mikäel was assigned female at birth as his mom addresses him and his sister as "girls." Mikäel becomes friends with Lisa and the boys and tries to hide his genitalia to appear like a boy (make it seem that he has a penis). At one point this leads Mikäel to pee his pants, which originally makes him embarrassed, but is soon forgotten. As they all play, Lisa and Mikäel develop crushes on each other and after swimming one day, Lisa kisses him. At this point, Mikäel also seems to be accepted into the group of boys.
