2. Moviezine

10 / 10

Translated from swedish: The film addresses universal questions about what it's like to fall for someone, to worry about whether one's feelings are reciprocated, to hope and to long. And that is more than enough.

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: I love its well-written script that is performed by superb actors. The dialogue is so well-written and the emotions in the movie are perfectly underscored by its music. The film is brimming with a wonderful atmosphere and to say that it is romantic would be an understatement.
