Låt den rätte komma in (2008) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1139797/)
Oskar, a bullied 12-year old, dreams of revenge. He falls in love with Eli, a peculiar girl. She can't stand the sun or food and to come into a room she needs to be invited. Eli gives Oskar the strength to hit back but when he realizes that Eli needs to drink other peoples blood to live he's faced with a choice. How much can love forgive? Let The Right One In is a story both violent and highly romantic, set in the Stockholm suburb of Blackeberg in 1982.
I'll keep it short, and just fill in the rest later.
It's honest, it's beautiful and it's unconventional. It's definitely a worth-watch even if you don't happen to be from the cold north. Normally you'll look between your fingers when judging child acting, but in this case it's (for the most part) flawless, and downright impressive.
No it's not a sappy children's film. And yes, you'll enjoy it regardless of nationality or age.
