The members of a ’70s Stockholm commune reunite decades later to renew old romances and reveal their lives are as messy as ever, in Lukas Moodysson’s razor-sharp comedy.
In 1975, a group of idealists lived in a community called “Together”. Now in 1999, “Together” is in a new house and has become the world’s smallest commune consisting of only two people - Göran and Klasse. Feeling a bit lonely, Klasse decides to surprise Göran with a reunion on his birthday. Beloved Swedish filmmaker, Lukas Moodysson, assembles some familiar faces and others who feel completely foreign in this dark comedy, only to discover how much has changed over the years and begin to realize not everything in life goes quite as planned. Acerbic and warm-hearted in equal measure, Lukas Moodysson invites viewers back to the fictional Stockholm commune he introduced in Together (2000), a film that helped establish the director’s keen take on human frailty.
