            SummerAnne is sixteen and lives in a remote village in the Southern Netherlands. A forgotten spot where fields reach as far as the eye can see and where electricity cables criss-cross the sky and never stop humming. Annes circle comprises her family and friends or rather classmates and kids from the surrounding villages, all adolescents heading for adulthood. The mood is sultry as hormones churn around their bodies. In the week they cycle to school along the lanes into the wind. At the weekend they race along dike roads or go boating in the lake, where the girls show off their bikinis and the boys wear oversized Hawaiian trunks.Anne is a bit of an outsider and through her eyes see the young people whose lives are closely linked to hers. Its a small village and everyone is connected to everyone else.During this sweltering summer, Anne feels lonely and detached. That is, until she meets Lena, who is new around here. Lena rides a motorbike and wears leather gear and is obviously different from everyone else. They meet at the fuel station where Anne works in the weekends. Anne quickly develops feelings for Lena, but they are feelings that she cannot fathom. However they are so intense that she cant turn and walk away from them either. In the local bars and clubs she looks for Lena, just as Lena turns out to be looking for her. Love unfolds in all its tender awkwardness.Things come to a head one evening when Anne and Lena, having finally found each other, leave the village disco together and head to the meadow. They are followed, mocked and insulted by the disco crowd. However, this only strengthens their love.By the end of the summer a chain of events causes the group of friends to disintegrate suddenly and everyone goes their own way.Summer is a film about growing pains, about young people craving for independence while also needing to fit in.
