The goal for this study has been to examine how sexual interactions are portrayed in the norwegian Webb and TV-series Skam. It has been done by studying different elements that are included in a scene with sexual interaction. The scenes has been studied with semiotic content analysis from a multimodal perspective. Other theroies that has been important for this study is the triangular theory of love and a theory about the meaning of music for the in narrative media. The study aims to examine the content, the portrayal and the what message it could give the viewers of Skam. Furthermore the series outplays on several internetbased social platforms, and therefore the viewer comes closer to the characters and gets more absorbed in their lives. The result shows that sexual interactions occurs mostly between persons that is a part of a realationship based on love. Therefore the couple has built a storng emotional bond before they engage in intercourse. Which mostly occurs without verbal communication and therefore there’s music in the scene which can guide the viewer. As the series goes on the characters experienses both positive and negative sides of sexual interactions, as a result the viewer gets a more nuanced perspective about how sexual interactions can play out.
