Amateur Teens

About Amateur Teens

A group of normal 14-year-old teenagers at a secondary school in Zürich with the normal yearnings for love and acceptance. But the power of social media, with its high-gloss selfies and perpetual pressure towards cooler and sexier, increasingly forces the kids to deny their true feelings.

Amateur Teens is a 2015 drama film directed by Niklaus Hilber. Its themes are male friendship, group of friends, sexuality, and first love.

Fabrizio Borsani stars as Selim, Jérôme Humm as Jan, Benjamin Dangel as Adi, and Annina Walt as Lara. At 92 minutes long, it arrived in September 2015.

The screenplay is by Niklaus Hilber and Patrick Tönz.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Mean Girls, and Talk to Me make useful companions to Amateur Teens, all filed under coming of age and high school.
