Very good North Swedish Movie
13 January 2005 | by (Sweden) – See all my reviews

This is the kind of movies we need in these days. Rock N Roll movies, now when the Hip Hop gets too much place.

The Movie is about two boys which grows up in Northern Sweden. Its the sixties and Sweden is on a era of new inventions. New roads and buildings where builted. And now Sweden need more people who can work on these projects. And we took people from Finland.

Thease two boys, one Swedish and one finish, discover the new music, Rock N Roll. And when they got 15, they started a Rock n Roll band, which was impossible before, because the people in northern Sweden is very conservative and doesn't like to buy something which they haven't used before. But thanks to their new music teacher, which comes from souther Sweden, helped them.
