Rakel is a strict Christian believer living in the far north of 1930s Sweden. When her husband forms a sectarian movement, with directions straight from God, she has no choice but to join the increasingly explicit cult.

A young woman from Stockholm moves to her boyfriend's hometown in northern Sweden, but the relationship quickly ends. She finds a job and stays, for reasons she doesn't even understand herself. How do you become part of something new?

45-year-old Iris, a musician performing aboard the ferry between Vaasa and Umeå, is stuck in a life that never quite turned out the way she imagined. When a younger music producer suddenly sees her in a new light, a longing for something different awakens – but pursuing it draws her into a web of lies that threatens everything she already has.

Maj Doris follows the 74-year-old legendary Sámi woman Maj Doris Rimpi. Twenty years ago she had another kind of life. She traveled all around the world and she experienced a lot. Nowadays Maj Doris lives alone on a farm above the arctic circle in Sweden. She keeps reindeer but she’s also a sought-after artist, painter and actress.

Maja (22) lives in Stockholm, Sweden, but a death within the family forces her back to her hometown of Pajala. In Pajala, her sister Sofia lives with the troubadour Johan. After the funeral, Sofia will accompany Johan on a summer tour around Tornedalen, and Maja decides to come along. It will be a journey where questions about their origin and the future of the Tornedal will be put on their head.

A personal deconstruction of the true crime genre, focusing on the figure of a relative of the director: a notorious Swedish criminal nicknamed “the Count.” As it recounts the life story of this three-times suspect of murder, the film challenges the seemingly unquenchable thirst for stories about violence. A thrilling, topical, and political documentary made to dispute the viewers’ need and wants for this type of true stories – a true Nordic noir, the first of its kind.
