  • A Film by PETER GRÖNLUND
    B-REEL FILMS AB present GOLIATH A film by PETER GRÖNLUND 2018 / Sweden / Colour / 88 minutes INTERNATIONAL SALES Eva Diederix [email protected] Silvia Simonnutti [email protected] Fanny Beauville [email protected] Olpha Ben Salah [email protected] Download press kit and stills: https://www.wildbunch.biz/movie/goliath/ SYNOPSIS Goliath is set in a forgotten industrial town somewhere in Sweden. When Roland is sentenced to prison, his seventeen years old son Kimmie, is expected to take over the criminal business and provide for the family, a task he is not ready for. The film's depicting a boy's brutal entry into adult life and examines aspects of social heritage and patriarchal structures, at a time when the welfare system is declining and Sweden is at change. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT “... Small Swedish industrial communities such as Hofors, Avesta and Lesjöfors face a number of problems, one of which is drugs and the attendant criminality among the young people. According to several studies it is possible to see how drugs are filtering down through the age- groups. The customary weekend binge drinking is always with us, but we must never forget that drugs and criminality are only a symptom of a much more deep-rooted disease. In whatever direction one cares to look, apathy and uniformity cast their shadow over a society that spins ever faster, and it is easy in this day and age for people to lose their grip. It can be difficult to keep one’s faith in a better world. People cling to their monthly wage as a final outpost of happiness.

  • 'Let's Pretend We Are the Only People in the Universe'
    Scandinavica Vol 53 No 1 2014 ‘Let’s pretend we are the only people in the universe’: Entangled Inequalities in Lukas Moodysson’s Mammoth Elina Nilsson Uppsala Universitet (Uppsala University) Abstract This article utilizes an intersectional approach to examine Lukas Moodysson’s film Mammoth (2009). When the film premiered it was by some criticized for its over-explicit critique of globalization and its portrayals of the female characters as scapegoats. My aim is to show how the film’s critique of globalization entails even more complexity. An intersectional reading of Mammoth reveals that the film employs a structure of pronounced narrative layers to illustrate how different axes of stratifications are entangled on a global level, such as how the situation of the characters are determined by an interplay of their gender, class and race. The film is thus a rich example of why a sensitivity to intersectionality when mapping processes of globalization is highly important. At the same time there is an ambivalence with regard to how the female characters are represented, as the film in some respects fails to acknowledge their agency. Keywords Lukas Moodysson, Mammoth (film), globalization, intersectionality, gendered labour 55 Scandinavica Vol 53 No 1 2014 My first encounter with Lukas Moodysson’s international film Mammut (Mammoth, 2009) was at a movie theatre in Uppsala, Sweden, just shortly after its premiere.1 I remember stepping out of the theatre in the February cold feeling somewhat dispirited and sad, having read the film both as a critique of how contemporary parenthood (motherhood) fails to take care of children and as an over-explicit criticism of capitalist-driven globalization,2 consumption and Western exploitation of the South.
