You Are Not Alone
Alternative title: Du er ikke alene

Directed by Ernst Johansen & Lasse Nielsen

Two precocious boys navigate their budding sexuality at a boarding school, testing boundaries and discovering themselves.
You Are Not Alone has long divided viewers, but its gentle Danish naturalism gives the central coming-of-age story an unusual softness. The film is more interested in friendship, affection and youthful curiosity than dramatic confrontation, and although parts of it are undeniably controversial when viewed today, its relaxed tone remains distinctive within 1970s gay filmmaking.
