With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for anyone who wants a laugh and anyone who loves a strong drama. Leaves you with something to think about. Liked A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence? This is a good next one.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 28 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in Swedish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1972: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
Erik works during the summer at a filling station for boats in the Stockholm archipelago and devotes his spare time to amateur photography. When Erik falls in love with Sonja, who unfortunately is already engaged, he begins to sneak up on her with his camera.
