Turn Me On, Dammit! or Turn Me On, Goddammit! is a 2011 Norwegian coming-of-age teen romantic comedy film directed by Jannicke Systad Jacobsen. It is based on Olaug Nilssen’s novel of the same name. Set in Skoddeheimen, a fictional small town in western Norway, the film is about Alma, a 15-year-old girl and her sexual awakening.

Production

Director Jannicke Systad Jacobsen said the novel was popular in Norway, and that she "related to it in a kind philosophical and artistic way". Jacobsen said she admired how the story captured the teenage experience, in how minor incidents became major. Much of the casting took place in a town reminiscent of the one in the story, requiring acting lessons for the young actors.
