Our take
Aglow with sun-kissed, end-of-summer warmth, this autobiographical coming-of-age drama set on Sweden’s coast swells with emotional anticipation. Funny and nostalgic, but tinged with a sense of impending tragedy, Falkenberg Farewell is an affecting debut from first-time filmmaker Jesper Ganslandt.
