Pitbull Terje
2005 · Movie · 90 min. · Norway

Christmas is coming, something that 12-year-old Jim hardly looks forward to. As the class dork, he's often used by his classmates. At home his anxious mother is not able to get out of bed. One day, weird Terje (called 'Pitbullterje') moves into the neighborhood. He insists on being best buddies with Jim, even if this leads to even more problems for him. 'Pitbullterje' is a comedy about lies, social pressure and friendship. A new boy, Terje, joins Jim's class. Terje is huge, doesn't make friends easily (partly because he keeps threatening to send his pitbull to kill them) and has a father who likes beer a lot and has a part time job as Santa Claus at the local mall. Terje's arrival changes Jim's life: Jim now has to choose: should he grasp the opportunity of joining the cool kids (because they now have an even easier target than himself to pick on), or should he try to make friends with Terje?
