TILLSAMMANS 99 / TOGETHER 99

A group of very different individuals who in 1975 lived in a commune called “Together“. Now it is 1999, and the collective has turned into the world’s smallest. The commune consists of only two people – Göran and Klasse. Feeling a bit lonely, the idea occurs of a reunion with their old friends.

Moodysson’s oeuvre has been showered with accolades, including films Together (2000) and Lilya 4-ever (2002).

 

Reveiws:

Hardly glibly nostalgic, it is film about the passage of time and the difficulty of holding onto relationships, romantic or otherwise.
