CommentsXp Best movie ever!

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

OJT Therese inter-weening dramatic stories from the darkest side of Sweden makes out to be an interesting film, and maybe the best Swedish film I've ever seen.The film is about love, jealousy and violence, and strong persons. Strong persons, and the dangerous ones which they fight.We meet a female journalist who is married to a violent jealous husband, a young girl of which the family is ready to punish her by honor killing, and a night club owner which falls into serious trouble with a gang of criminals, which is threatening him to keep silent with what he has seen.All the three stories are equally interesting, and the film is built up with cliffhangers. Each of the stories are good enough to be films on their own. While the film follows the three stories, we wonder what the connection between them is. You'll get the answer.Exciting, well directed, well played and driven with our need to know how it all turns out. Well done!

A V 'I am so grateful that I have such a safe life and I hope I dot experience any incident of physical violence ever'. This is what I felt after watching this film. Hard-hitting and such realistic portrayals of violence among normal working class people like us are what makes this movie gripping. Ably supported by the cast, at the end all I was praying for was justice for the victims in the 3 stories. Hoping that all will be fine. It was so unsettling. Even though I've rated this movie at 8, it isn't for everybody. Because its not pure entertainment that's playing out here but a disturbing story that will make one squirm in the seat. Good film.

pummelruebe1000 I saw this movie just last week on the Berlin International Film Festival because it's a Swedish movie and I had the chance to watch in original language there. I did not know anything about it and was very surprised how good it was! Although it started at 9:30 p.m. and was very long (134 Minutes), it never gets boring and it was truly worth staying up so late. It was very intense and gripping! Especially the episode about the "honour murder" where a young woman is killed by her own family because she dishonored the family by having a boyfriend. Her sister is traumatized and struggles to deal with that. When she decides to go to the police she puts her own life in danger.But also the other stories are great: A female prize winning and tough journalist has experienced domestic violence for many years until she finally has the courage to report her husband to the police. Since her husband worked for the same newspaper and was a journalist, too she looses her friends and colleagues because they believe that she only exaggerated.And the owner of a disco witnessed an shooting in front of his location in which one of his bouncers who is a very good friend gets shot in the leg. He refuses to take money from the shooter for not testifying although all other witnesses do so. As a consequence he has to live in fear for himself and the ones he loves.I recommend this movie to people who liked the other movies from the same director Nilsson (Den tredje vagen - The Third Wave) and "L.A. Crash".I see a lot of movies and have already seen many of this years Oscar Nominees. But none of the movies I saw lately moved me like this one. That film really would deserve a nomination next year. I don't understand why it wasn't in the competition here in Berlin!I hope the movie will come to the cinemas in many countries, at least here in Germany. I deserves to be seen.

Pucco88 I just finished this movie, and I just have to say one word, Wow! I have never in my life been so touched by a movie before.Meet a story who combines three families problems into one, and follow their path through a dark time, a time who takes place in our society. Is the path so lined with mortality that it only can lead to one possible goal, death, or will we see a happy ending?"När mörkret faller" (english translation "When darkness falls") brings up a lot of questions concerning the Swedish law system, how it fails to help those who really needs to be taken seriously. Domestic abuse, honor killing, assault and death threats are just some of the main topics of the movie. They are all hot topics and worth a great discussion, and I really hope that this movie will start one.The director has successfully created a mind blowing storyline, which keeps you nailed at the TV-screen, the cut scenes are just in perfect balance and has the right transition. It also contains many hidden messages and ethics, and behind all that cruel and disturbing violence and darkness, you can eventually spot a little light......it's time for some changes in our society.
