About This Movie
The Tenderness, directed by Annika Silkeberg, is a poignant exploration of youth grappling with the harsh realities of AIDS. The film spans just two days in young Rasmus's life, beginning with the heavy moment he confesses to his parents about his diagnosis. The pacing is deliberately measured, reflecting the weight of his situation, pulling the viewer into a somber yet intimate atmosphere. The performances are raw and heartfelt, especially from the lead, capturing the blend of hope and despair. What sets this TV movie apart is its unflinching look at a time when AIDS was heavily stigmatized. The practical effects are minimal, which feels fitting, allowing the emotional weight to shine through without distraction.
