Storyline:

English:

Fanny has just moved from Lolland and started a new high school in North Zealand. She eagerly tries to fit in, but the school is dominated with a heavy hand by the group of girls in her class. She joins forces with the former queen of the pack, Lilja, and together they go against the culture of popularity, doing exactly what suits them to achieve the same opportunities and be invited where it happens. But the power struggle comes at a price, and what does it really mean to be popular if you don’t even have a friend you can trust? KONTRA is a raw and visual film about friendships, beauty ideals, and hierarchies.

Danish:

Fanny er lige flyttet fra Lolland og startet på et nyt gymnasium i Nordsjælland. Hun forsøger ivrigt at passe ind, men skolen domineres med hård hånd af pigegruppen i hendes klasse. Hun finder sammen med den tidligere dronning af flokken, Lilja, og sammen går de kontra på popularitetskulturen, og gør præcist, hvad der passer dem, for at opnå de samme muligheder, og blive inviteret med, hvor det sker. Men magtkampen har en pris, og hvad betyder det egentlig at være populær, hvis du ikke engang har en ven, som du kan stole på? KONTRA er en rå og visuel film om venskaber, skønhedsidealer og hierakier.
