The biggest ski race in the world is Vasaloppet in Sweden. 16 000 participants start in Sälen in the morning. It is 90 kilometers to the goal in Mora. What happens to all the people who do not manage? They have to jump on to the humiliating ”Bus of broken hearts”, the helping bus that transports them to the goal. This film is about hillarious, sad and terrible failures during the race and different ways to handle being a looser.

A ferocious study of everyday sadism. Grief over a lost child has left Mina living a half-life in the shadows. But one day her world is shaken when a neighbour starts projecting obscene films into her bedroom. Seeking revenge on him, Mina enters into a game where the boundaries of fantasy and reality start to fade. A story unfolds – two people wracked with painful longing for atonement.

Constructed in 1955 to initially connect Kiruna in Sweden to Altavatn in Norway, the work with the Solitary road was stopped for military reasons. Five small villages had been connected by the road and they were left with a deserted 20 km stretch in the wilderness. Along the road Sami people and finish farmers continue their lives. They still have the road and they have brought really old cars over the ice of Torneträsk so they could drive during summer time. One of the old men that built the road, Sven-Erik Stöckel, writes a letter to the politicians in Kiruna, asking them to finish the road so people do not have to risk their lives getting to the road crossing the dangerous lake of Torneträsk. Will it ever be finished? And what happened to the children that were born as a result of the road workers coming into the wilderness meeting the local girls?

A woman visits a deserted old industrial building. Once there, she encounters two children. They lead her deeper inside the building and closer to their dark secret. What started as an innocent game, has suddenly become an odd ballet.
