About a man's fierce battle with the authorities to keep his horses.

A engaging and exotic man–nature documentary that is sure to capture audiences in many countries. Beautifully filmed by Peter Gerdehag and sensitively edited by Tell Johansson. He lives for horses, he lives with horses, he works with horses and he just about dies when he is forced to leave his horses because of a storm that turns his life upside down.

The Swedish model for fighting Covid-19 in recent years has been discussed across the entire world, and its main figures have been the object of both hate campaigns and personality cults. Documentary filmmaker Viktor Nordenskiöld’s camera has followed the front figures of the crisis at conferences and everyday places. The result is a highly interested insight into the processes that have laid at the foundation of the controversial Swedish strategy, and how the medial and political pressure affected the decision-makers.

Britt is 77 years old and lives for her beloved cows. Despite being bent over double after a back injury, she perseveres with milking by hand and delivers to Arla.

It was as if the rock star costume didn't quite fit Ola Magnell. He was always in the middle of the flow, but never seemed to enjoy it. Jovial and nervous, but also angry and anxious. Somewhere between Bob Dylan and the Swedish poet Gustaf Fröding, a mix of Rock'n'roll and poetry. An outsider who endured hard beatings for his wayward choices but never saw any other way to go.
