Storyline
HOLIDAY FROM HELL. A young couple in the IT business, with no kids and a fancy house in a good neighbourhood, finally have a few weeks off before new career challenges. Envious about their friends' exotic holiday destinations, they meet a travel agent offering them the ultimate experience: four weeks in one of the shadiest suburbs of the city. Part of the deal is that their credit cards, passports and keys are all sealed in an envelope. Acting as an unemployed couple, their street credibility is often questioned by their new neighbours who are more at home with the ways of the concrete jungle. And this is just the beginning...

If you know any of the old Norse "Ole and Lena" (Norwegian or Swedish jokes akin to "Polish jokes"), you will understand this updated illustration of the tendency of Scandinavians to be tricked or embarrass themselves. [saying this being one] This story gives the audience an interesting ride that is both exhilarating and painful - and definitely original.
A young upwardly-mobile couple get sucked into a downward, terrifying spiral that ends up changing their lives in a number of positive ways.
Kudos on a great story, fine sense of struggle, nice direction and wonderful performances. Absolutely well worth watching if not one of the best foreign films I've seen in the past year.
