'Mom might have a job (or be socializing too much!)' : 'The right to love', children's sexuality and parenthood

Björklund, Elisabet LU (2017) In Journal of Scandinavian Cinema 7(1). p.13-25
Abstract
Having been unavailable for many years, the Swedish film Rätten att älska (‘The right to love’) was restored by the Swedish Film Institute in 2013 and made accessible for research. In many ways a typical example of the sex education film genre of its time, the film is simultaneously unusual because it deals with children’s sexuality. This article explores and discusses the representation of children in the film in relation to how it connects to issues of parenthood.
