About This Is Not Sweden
Mariana and Samuel go to live in Vallvidrera, a mountain neighbourhood in Barcelona, to raise their children in a more authentic place, far from their respective painful childhoods. There, they find a community with the same aspirations. But when tragedy shakes the neighbourhood, they dismantle their ideal, the couple's certainties begin to waver and fear settles in, coming dangerously close to everything they were trying to escape.
