User Reviews

Lots of love and some sex

Lisa Olin is a talented Swedish director and her movies are about everyday-people with very dramatic bud still everyday-conflicts.

This is about the TV-man leading a totally vulgar program, there he tries to get singles into relationships. It's supposed to be real life, but is of course as far from that as possible. But there is a real life, even for him and Krister Henriksson here gives another great performance.

Everybody here are unhappy for different reasons and mostly because of the merciless truths they are confronted with. It would have been better to remain in the lies, but in the end they seem to find that also truth can be handled and there is also some sex, love and hope. For them anyway.
