Kick Me in the Traditions

The huge box office hit based on Leif Panduro’s humerous depiction of the youth’s contradiction to the older generations - watched by more than 600.000 Danish cinemagoers!

David, a senior high-school student, aims a swift kick at his principal’s behind and is committed to a psychiatric ward from the perspective of which he takes a close look at his allegedly sane family. They, of course, are the real loonies. The psychiatrists are worse. Only lovely class-mate Lis is down-to-earth and trustworthy.
