Jitters (Órói, littéralement « Troubles ») est un film dramatique romantique islandais coécrit et réalisé par Baldvin Zophoníasson, sorti en 2010.

Synopsis

Gabriel, adolescent dégingandé islandais de seize ans, effectue un séjour linguistique de trois semaines à Manchester, où il rencontre Markus, adolescent islandais comme lui. Ce dernier est blond et masculin et semble très intéressé par les filles. Il se destine à devenir coiffeur à la rentrée. Après une nuit arrosée, ils s'embrassent et cela donne à Gabriel la chair de poule. Revenu à Reykjavik, Gabriel l'évite et préfère rester avec sa bande d'amis à sortir et à s'amuser et aussi à trop boire. Il est le confident de Stella dont il ne s'aperçoit pas qu'elle est amoureuse de lui et il est aussi ami avec Gréta à la recherche de son père qui ne l'a pas reconnue. Il conseille son copain Teddi - au caractère viril et séducteur - dans ses amours et sa relation avec Tara. Tous ces adolescents sont plus ou moins surveillés par leurs parents qui sont eux-mêmes en difficulté avec leur propre existence. Un drame va souder la petite bande d'amis et faire accepter à Gabriel sa nature intime.

In an upscale New York City mansion, wealthy and popular Kathryn Merteuil (Gellar) is discussing her prep school with Mrs. Caldwell (Christine Baranski) and Caldwell's daughter Cecile (Selma Blair). Kathryn promises Mrs. Caldwell that she will look out for the sheltered and naive Cecile. Sebastian (Phillippe) enters and Mrs. Caldwell reacts to him coldly and leaves with Cecile. Kathryn reveals that her real intention is to use Cecile to take revenge on Court, her ex-lover, who had dumped her for Cecile. Kathryn asks her step-brother Sebastian to seduce Cecile; he refuses as he is planning to seduce virgin Annette Hargrove (Witherspoon), the daughter of their school's headmaster. Annette is a 'paradigm of chastity and virtue' who recently wrote a published essay about saving herself for marriage and has been temporarily staying with Sebastian's aunt. The two make a wager: If Kathryn wins, she gets Sebastian's vintage Jaguar XK140; if Sebastian wins, Kathryn will have sex with him. It is mentioned that Sebastian keeps a journal detailing his conquests.

The story centers on Leonardo (Ghilherme Lobo), a blind high school student struggling with independence. At the beginning of the film, he and his best friend, Giovana (Tess Amorim), are discussing how they have yet to kiss anyone. Leo is especially distressed because he wants his first kiss to be special, but doesn't believe anyone wants to kiss him. When the day ends, Giovana walks Leo home, his arm linked with hers, and she unlocks his door for him, something she regularly does for him despite her house being a block in the opposite direction. Leo arrives home and his mother expresses distress at Leo's sunburned skin and worry at the thought of leaving Leo home alone while she and his father are out. Leo insists he will be fine, and his mother agrees under certain terms. Leo and Giovana return to school after holiday and classmate Fabio (Pablo Carvalho) makes fun of Leo's loud typewriter. When their professor instructs Fabio to move to the empty seat behind Leo, Fabio outright declines, arguing he will constantly have to assist Leo if he sits there. A new student named Gabriel (Fabio Audi) arrives and takes the empty seat behind Leo.
