Raven's End

Set in 1936 and filmed in a bleak tower block in Malmö demolished shortly afterwards, from which the occupants dream hopelessly of escape while being nearly three months behind with the rent.

Anders (Tommy Berggren) dreams of success as a writer, while his father (Keve Hjelm) simply dreams as he drinks himself into a stupor upon his return from a downward succession of humiliating menial jobs; and mother (Emy Storm) toils endlessly in a waking nightmare of drudgery in her exertions to hold the family together.
