The second bullet under Exploitation Film is both incorrectly indented and irrelevant.


* AndNowWhat: Monika and Harry's sex- and sun-fulled summer idyll by the beach comes to an end when they run out of money and food.



** This movie is not unique in venturing into the territory of exploitation as ''Film/TheVirginSpring'' influenced the rape and revenge genre.

* StylisticSuck: The [[ShowWithinAShow "American" movie]] Harry and Monika go to see. Monika is absolutely entranced with it exactly ''because'' it bears no resemblance to any reality she knows.

* StylisticSuck: The [[ShowWithinAShow "American" movie]] Harry and Monika go to see. The acting is wooden (even allowing for the fact that the performers are Swedes speaking English) and the dialogue is hokey, leaving Harry bored sick. By contrast, Monika is absolutely entranced with it exactly ''because'' it bears no resemblance to any reality she knows.

In the working class part of Stockholm, two teenagers are stuck in dead end jobs. Harry is picked on and browbeaten at the porcelain shop where he works as a delivery boy; Monika is constantly sexually harassed at the grocery store where she works. They meet and ran off to escape the dreary world. They have a carefree romance celebrating their youth and their love, and they try to live by their rules against the wishes of their parental and social norms. But alas, summer is ending, and reality comes in, and gives new challenges to the couple.
