A film by Måns Berthas

NATIONAL PREMIERE / Sweden / Comedy, Drama / 07:31 min / 2018


A woman in a tattered wedding gown wakes in the forest to the sound of a deafening car horn. She finds her husband in the crashed car nearby. He’s in bad shape but alive. In the wrecked interior, they start to talk about their relationship, which soon seems to be as demolished as their Saab.
