I enjoyed this movie. The opening minutes were especially good, I thought, and they really grabbed my interest with their humour and unexpectedness (although I had no idea what the movie was about before I saw it anyway). I don't know that I felt much empathy with any of the characters, but they were interesting, the story was watchable if not overly gripping and the funny parts were genuinely funny. I don't know that the deadbeat boyfriend of Carola was very believable, but there was drama, romance, sex, comedy, misunderstanding, loss and love. What more could you want from a bit of light entertainment? It wasn't brilliant, but it was good fun. Why was it called 'Miffo' though?

A young priest from an affluent background with frustrations and doubts about about his faith requests a transfer to a failing church in one of the dreary suburbs of Gothenburg, Sweden (NOT Stockholm as the fellow from Stockholm that wrote another review on here stated).

While going door to door in his new, disinterested parish he comes across a young lady in a wheelchair. The two share an attraction, but he has trepidations about dating someone on welfare and in a wheelchair.

This is an interesting dramedy with some fine performances. It dares to tackle some subjects that are largely taboo in most cinema. The characters and most of the dialog rings true. On the whole, an interesting Swedish film.

If your into current swedish movies, this one holds the standard. A somewhat unusual storyline with surprises at regular intervals keeps it going. Scenery seen in the movie is very true to current Stockholm and it's suburbs. Casting is quite ok too.

The story was pretty weak and after one hour the movie felt long and boring from time to time. I'm not gonna spoil the end but i can tell you the movie's better the longer on the timeline you've gone through. Overall a good Swedish movie but i don't think it's playing in the same league as Daniel Lind Lagerlöfs previous works.

The film was about guy called Tobias who is a priest. He just moved out from his old apartment and moved into his "X" girlfriends apartment in Uppsala. He starts working in a church but no people is coming to his assemblies. So Tobias decides do go knock on doors to decide people to come to church. Every body is turning him down. But when he almost has given up his hopes a woman comes out of her apartment door. The woman sits in a wheelchair. She rools up to Tobias and says shes sorry that she coulden't answer the door before because she was in the restroom. She said her name was Carola. Tobias and Carola goes to a restaurant and eat pizza. After a couple of weeks Carola's fake dad died so Tobias has to ceep the funeral. the day after he and Carola goes to water the plants in Tobias parents apartment because they are on a holiday.

A priest falls in love with a girl in a wheelchair. That idea already intriges. Nothing everything works in this comedy / romance, but what i like about it are the rough edges and some hilarious scènes. The scene with the vibrator for example is Reality funny.
