Positive, no rating
Translated from swedish: The story is by nature more lighthearted and there is something sublime in the film's tone of innocent cluelessness, primarily colored by the acting's charmingly naive simplicity; a dreamy mindlessness that recalls youthful carefreeness.

Positive, no rating
Translated from swedish: The plot is actually thin. The once-celebrated acting now seems a bit awkward, and for long stretches nothing happens. But the images are beautiful and the message about letting beauty and open-mindedness into a narrow existence is always right.

1. Filmtopp
Translated from swedish: The acting is consistently top-notch and the director has managed to bring out the best from each character. Great attention is also paid to details, not just scenographically but also in the storytelling, which makes the film feel more natural. What prevents the film from reaching all the way to a perfect score is that it occasionally feels a bit too long and drawn-out.
