Internationally Sweden is seen as a perfect society, a role model and a symbol of the highest achievements of human progress. The Swedish Theory of Love digs into the true nature of Swedish life style, explores the existential black holes of a society that has created the most autonomous people in the world. Written by Fasad
While, I can truly relate to a lot of the issues talked about in the film, the film is incoherent. For being a documentary exploring such a broad subject, it really doesn't go into depth with anything. It is basically, in the end, a variety of interviews and views of people and their lives in Sweden. It really does nothing than just paint a picture of Swedish culture as gray, without ever talking about why the director finds the culture gray. It is however really touching at times and the production is breathtaking occasionally. This is just a beautiful mess of a documentary, but a mess nonetheless. One of the least informative documentaries I've seen.
