Sebastian

Sebastian is going through the tormenting experience of growing up. He is changing, and in some ways becoming a different person. His diverging feelings fight for supremacy, and he tries desperately to keep up the facade. But when will his new-found identity express itself?

He must come to terms with his true self; and his established appearance must alter. When this happens a new and happy Sebastian appears in the midst of his friends, family and community, with a renewed and powerful sense of self-esteem.

Sebastian’s character becomes the pulpit where warmth and generosity between people is expounded in a joyful manner. This “coming-of-age” story portrays friendship, understanding and a delightful emotional state, together with the comedy that real life provides. –Norwegian Film Institute
