It's the story about a Swedish boy who due to his mother's illness is forced to live with his uncle in a small town full of eccentrics. After being accepted in the town he goes back to be with his mother but upon her death he goes back to live with his uncle for good.This film is one of the sweetest movies you will ever see. It's warm and funny and it's the cinematic equivalent of big bear hug that you never want out of. The performance given by the lead actor, Anton Glanzelius as the little boy who gets moved around too much, is nothing short of fantastic. And the performance given by the tom boy who is growing into her female body, Melinda Kinnamen, is touching and sweet as well.
If you have never seen this film you are missing out on one of the finest films ever made. It's well worth your time, even if you hate movies with subtitles.
