I had never heard of this film and only discovered it while Googling something else on a rainy day this past weekend.
When I viewed the trailer for the film on YouTube, I was floored. See for yourself.
Yes, the boys are the ones in long hair, makeup and high heels, while the girls are in trousers and short hair.
The film's "teaser" on YouTube made me want to see more.
I searched for more and found the film's Facebook page and one short clip from the film, but nowhere can I view or purchase the film. If anyone has a lead on where to buy or see the film, I would appreciate it.

Caveat Emptor: This is NOT a link to Girls & Boys. Rather, it is The Two Ronnies' take on matriarchal life.
DeleteSorry should have said that but I was struck by the similarities of women ruling and men being forced to wear dresses.
DeleteYeah if anyone can find this please post how! Great find!
ReplyDeleteIn the trailer it seemed to me the girls came across as boys before puberty due to their treble voices.
ReplyDeleteThe boys appear to wear codpieces, something that was common in the 15th and 16th centuries.
It would appear to be their equivalent of a push up bra.
DeleteI found this link, but it it’s either unavailable in my country or it’s been deleted. I’m desperate to find it...I must’ve watched the trailer twenty times!!

I found that link over the weekend and the film was deleted from what I can determine.
DeleteI wrote them at the movie facebook page, they told me that we can contact the movie distribution organization distribution@filmcentrum.se, which usually distibutes it to schools. I couldnt get more information.
DeleteI did notice that the film is only 30 minutes long.
ReplyDeleteMaybe there is a place to purchase/view it through the Stockholm Film Festival but I learned all of my Swedish from The Muppets Show. Bork bork bork.
I found this on the Face Book page; "Film center is the distributor, they usually distribute to schools but hopefully you can get help from there, email: distribution@filmcentrum.se "
ReplyDeleteI emailed them and maybe if enough people did it would be available.
Best of luck trying to find this movie, I'm also working on trying to find where this movie can be available. BTW I love your blog!
ReplyDeleteAvailable to rent or buy on https://vimeo.com/ondemand/girlsandboys
