“I wanted to show a group of boys, naked, with all their dreams, their doubts and illusions, world champions and children at one and the same time.” - filmmaker Joachim TrierTwo 20-something best friends are aspiring novelists, each with big dreams and a competitive streak. When one finds early success, it's not all a bed of roses. Madness, love, insecurity and the real world get in the way of their exuberance - and their friendship. Reprise's effervescent pace and hip soundtrack are as punkish as the boys that it depicts but there's also a poetry to the film which knowingly recalls Truffaut's Jules & Jim. “Reprise is at once ebullient… and shot through with sorrow - not because corruption, disillusionment and disappointment are inevitable, but because they're permanent possibilities.” - Toronto Film Festival
