Sweden has disasters, too—who knew?
In this debut feature from Swedish film collective Crazy Pictures, the country suffers a devastating attack by a mysterious force. (Literal translation of the title = Now Comes the Blooming Time, which doesn’t tell us much.) When a young man is forced to return to his hometown as a result, he reconnects with the love of his life and decides to fight for her. How far will he go?
Crazy Pictures managed to raise more than half the movie’s budget through a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign—they reached their initial goal in only 21 hours. It is currently the largest crowd-funded feature in Swedish history.
The film is directed by Victor Danell, who cowrote it with Christoffer Nordenrot. Stars include Nordenrot, Lisa Henni, and Jesper Barkselius. Its release is slated for June 22 in Sweden, but no word yet on when/if the U.S. will be able to see it in theaters.
