If you are a white lower middle age father and husband watching this movie with your wife and daughter - don't expect this movie to be for you. Unless you are a masochist who enjoys being described as the root of the evil on this Earth.
This movie has it all:
Evil white male capitalist -- check. Evil white male raping his own wife -- check. Evil white male racist -- check. Dysfunctional white family -- check. Spiritual immigrant family -- check. Wonderful, caring immigrant husband -- check. Wonderful, caring and spiritual immigrant mother - check. White teenagers harassing retarded immigrant child -- check. Gay marriage -- check. Interracial gay marriage -- check.
I guess these are the ingredients you end up with, when you are funded by a highly political, left-wing liberal, public Swedish Film Institute which acts on the orders from the Swedish government. (As may be known. the Swedish prime minister (in 2006) said (freely translated): "the only thing original Swedish' is barbarism - everything good comes from the outside").
So, why do I give the movie 3 (out of 10)? I think the filming and directing is good. Also, the acting is really good from all actors, not at least by Loa Falkman (the evil white middle-aged male). Jesper Lindberger, playing the boy with Downs Syndrome gives the film its warmth.
If you are a white, left wing liberal female, between 14-60 years old - you will love this movie!
