About the film

Thelma, a timid young woman, leaves her rural home to study in Oslo. There, she finds love for the first time. But her relationship is complicated by her family's oppressive meddling, their seemingly fundamentalist religious beliefs, and, possibly, her unique ability to shape and affect her environment. When Thelma is upset or agitated, strange things seem to happen.
