A season of films showing the adult world from the child's point of view.
Starring Fredrik Becklen as Hugo, Marie Ohman as Josefin
Hugo and Josefin lead an idyllic existence. In their world, reasons are superfluous, disagreements transitory and disappointments erased by a new dawn.
Kjell Grede's first feature is never condescending or sentimental. It allows us to enter the children's lives without embarrassment and share their sorrows and pleasures.
