There he meets his new next-door neighbour Eli (Lina Leandersson), a mysterious girl of his own age who turns out to be a vampire. With Eli on his side, Oskar is finally able to face up to the bullies who have made his life such a misery, but Eli's unquenchable thirst for blood brings problems of its own.

Our review

"A superbly dark, desolate reworking of the vampire myth, adding in themes of social isolation, childhood bullying and forbidden love for a bruising emotional journey. It’s a vampire movie with serious bite."
