The Innocents is a 2021 Norwegian supernatural thriller written and directed by Eskil Vogt. It premiered at Cannes in July 2021.The film follows Ida (Rakel Lenora Flottum), a nine-year-old girl, and her older sister Anna (Alva Brynsmo Ramstad), who has severe nonverbal autism, as they move with their family to a large apartment complex. They quickly strike up friendships with two other children who live in the complex - Ben (Sam Ashraf) and Aisha (Mina Yasmin Bremseth Asheim). Before long, all four children begin developing supernatural powers. What follows is a deeply disturbing exploration of childhood psychology and the development of morality.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

comment
Adults Are Useless: None of the adults in the film are aware of the children's psychic powers, and the kids don't even consider trying to explain it to them. During the climactic psychic battle between Anna and Ben in a crowded playground, all the nearby children, including babies, are aware that something is going on, but the adults don't notice a thing.

Abusive Parents: Ben is seen with a large bruise on his torso in one scene and a large cut over his collarbone in another. His mother is also seen sleeping during the day and seems to be distracted by her phone when awake. It's implied that she is either neglectful or outright abusive toward him.

11th-Hour Superpower: After spending the majority of the film without any powers, Ida suddenly gains powers just before the climax. She has telekinesis and is implied to have telepathic abilities as well.
