Bjarne runs a moving company with his wife Malin, but it is shaky and they need to borrow money. Across the river lives Bjarnes father Halvar. The two have never pulled evenly, which stems from a 20-year conflict filled with idle words, grumpy pride and stubborn prestige. In order to rescue the firm Malin sees no alternative but to go across the river to ask Halvar to cater for the loan. A decision that will have unexpected consequences.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
micke-bystrom Despite passing performances by Rolf Lassgård as Bjarne and Lia Boysen as Malin, which in both cases probably is to be expected, this simple story doesn't give much room for deeper explorations of the characters. The story is told and that's that. The rest of the actors also put in OK efforts. Nothing really moved me, though there wasn't anything embarrassing or really badly performed, as quite a few Swedish films these days.The story can possibly be seen as an allegory of Swedish Christianity and some people may like that even if that particular subject is not explored very much. If this or a simple Swedish story of little significance can't be of interest, them this movie is not something one has to see. I wish I hadn't wasted the time.
