I skyggen af skoven er historien om fire venners sommer, som de tilbringer sammen inden studiestart. Det handler om at være ung, at turde stå på egne ben og om valg, fravalg og konsekvens.
Stikord: “Coming of age” – Drama – Venskab
Et øjeblik under festen mødes vi alle fire. Vi holder om hinanden og Victor får i sin fuldskab råbt hvor fedt det er, at vi alle skal afsted sammen. Vi istemmer hans begejstring. Vi skal afsted, sammen! Vi har sgu en aftale.
I skyggen af skoven handler om fire unge mænd som bor i en by i udkanten af Rold Skov. Studenterhuen er i hus, og de kan nu se frem til en sommer med øl, samvær og frihed. Gennem gymnasietiden er der udviklet et stærkt venskab, et venskab som til alles glæde ikke brydes efter ferien- de har aftalt at følges til København for at læse videre.
Vi følger vennerne i de hyggelige stunder, men også når alvoren melder sig. Når forventninger ikke indfries og drømme brister. Når venskab, kærlighed, familie og fremtid skal gå op i en højere enhed.
Scenariet handler om at være ung, om balancegangen mellem ønsket om at være sammen og behovet for at stå på egne ben. Om at træffe afgørende valg, om frygten for ikke at slå til, om familie, forventninger og det at blive voksen.

Keywords: Coming of age – Drama – Friendship
For a moment during the party, the four of us meet. With our arms around each other, we listen to Victor as he shouts how great it is that we are all leaving for Copenhagen together. We all echo his enthusiasm. We are going, together! We have a deal.
By the Forest is about four young men who live in a small town on the outskirts of Rold Forest. The final exams are over and they have all graduated. A summer with beer, friends and freedom is ahead. Throughout high school, a strong friendship have emerged. They have all agreed to leave for Copenhagen to start college life together.
We follow the friends in the joyful moments of summertime, but also when expectations and dreams fail. When friendship, love, family and future must come together. The scenario is about being young, about the balance between the desire to be together and the need to stand on your own. About making decisive choices, about the fear of personal failure, about family, expectations and entering adulthood.
