Overview
Set in 1982 in the suburb of Blackeberg, Stockholm, twelve-year-old Oskar is a lonely outsider, bullied at school by his classmates; at home, Oskar dreams of revenge against a trio of bullies. He befriends his twelve-year-old, next-door neighbor Eli, who only appears at night in the snow-covered playground outside their building.
My Opinion : At first watch we are given a fresh, beautifully poignant relationship between a boy and a seemingly mysterious girl filled with very solid performances. But its upon the second watch that we understand how dangerously different the mood actually was to the first time, setting this chilling thriller into a modernized draculian masterpiece. Though its budget may have been problematic.
