A sensitive portrait of a group of teenage friends in Iceland.
 While on a school trip to Manchester, quiet teen Gabriel has an unexpected encounter with his roommate Markus. On returning home to Iceland, his head swimming with confused feelings, Gabriel reconnects with his friends, each of whom is facing their own personal problems. Together, the group attempt to navigate their way through the complexities of teenage life, finding ways to help each other, and ultimately themselves. While Gabriel’s acceptance of his sexuality exists at the core, the journeys of his friends are given just as much attention, with the impressive young cast bringing a genuine sense of truth and poignancy. In its rigorous dissection of teenage life, Jitters has been likened to an Icelandic version of Skins, but while the film may share a focus on adolescent emotions, the result is far more sensitive and restrained than such a comparison might imply.
