Each unhappy punk-rock family unhappy in its own way

We Are the Best is a kinda cute Swedish film from 2014 but set in 1981, height of the punk music scene (apparently, who knew?), following three Swedish middle-school girls with, with no talent whatsoever (at least on the part of 2 of them) for a punk band; as w/ most let;s start a band/put on a play movies it builds toward the big night - the performance - but in a rather good twist their performance is not the grand triumph before a cheering crowd that we come to expect from the genre but a show before a tiny crowd that breaks down in chaos; perhaps that's a punk version of triumph. Each happy punk rocker family is alike, but each unhappy punk rocker family is unhappy in its own way - as this movie evinces: one girl has a more or less absent single mom busy in her own romantic/sexual life, one has a kind of nutty dad, one has a strict devout-Christian mom. They find one another through their avowedly terrible music. Like their music, the movie is rough around the edges, a little jumpy at times, perhaps striving for an amateur look w/ a lot of hand-held camera segments. The moment of crisis in the film involves the girls' pursuit of a boys' punk trio, which leaves one of the girls - the lead, really, Bobo - out in the cold as one of the boys didn't show. After some pouting and dramatics, the girls realize they're more important to one another and stay together as a band and as pals rather than break up over boy-troubles. The film's not plot-driven so much as mood-driven. I wouldn't be surprised if an American studio picks it up for a re-make in English, probably in a contemporary setting, probably with more plot twists, too. Hope they don't blow it.
