Because there is a madness in the Swedish idyll.

Winner Best First Feature Zlin Film Festival 2019

“devotes itself in a sensitive way to the coexistence of different cultures in contemporary Sweden, in a way that concerns the whole of Europe. Without using stereotypes, pathos or reprimands, this story tells about understanding, friendship and the need for a family.”

Winner Angelo Award Gothenburg Film Festival 2019 ”With strong presence, fingertip sensitivity and intensity this debut feature captures a range of the most acute contemporary issues. Urban versus rural, us versus them, alienation and longing. Cinematic craftsmanship seamlessly blends with unforgettable portraits of two young women who meet beyond all language barriers. All captured in visually strong images creating an important reflection of Sweden today.” Review Cineuropa The Unpromised Land is as pretty as can be, clearly shot by someone who knows what the Scandinavian summer is really all about. And yet, bathed in that beautiful northern light, it irritates like a rash, with the town it depicts remaining perfect only if you avoid screwing with its rules. source :
