Anxious people and not so much
Summary
Swedish miniseries of short chapters, a combination of police , choral dramedy and Christmas story that takes flight with some characters and situations and becomes somewhat sentimental with others and shows off a good narrative articulation of its stories.
Review
In a small Swedish town, a failed bank robber breaks into an apartment for sale and takes a group of potential buyers there hostage, an episode that will later lead to a police investigation.
The situation gives rise to the development of a choral plot, with twists and turns between the present and the past of the two policemen in charge of the investigation (a father and his son) and that of the hostages. There is a well-planned development where little by little we find out what happened during the hostage taking, in a plot where each one of them seems to hide something and the identity of the thief persists as the main unknown.
The police investigation then alternates with the stories of the hostages and their revelations (past and present), in a tone that ranges from melancholic comedy and sometimes a bit absurd to sentimental drama and where some characters and situations are more interesting than others. , all of them in charge of a solvent cast.
