When 18-year-old Johanna comes home from school, her miserable father hides behind drawn curtains. He can t manage buying food, paying the electric bill, or support his daughter, who instead plods over to the pawnshop with her slalom skis after the uninspired sophomoric sex with a pot-smoking small-time dealer from the villa neighbourhood. But one day Joanna ends up next to Audrey in German class, and everything changes. So Damn Easy Going is a charmingly playful love film where sparks fly around Nikki Hanseblad and Melina Benett Paukkonen in the leading roles, with Shanti Roney presenting a moving portrait of the tortured father on the couch.
