Barn av vår tid

About This Movie

Barn av vår tid is one of those films that quietly resonates. The story centers on Joakim, a 23-year-old stuck in a monotonous routine at a supermarket. It's stark and somewhat bleak, capturing that feeling of existential drift we all know too well. The pacing is deliberate, almost hypnotic, allowing the weight of Joakim's loneliness to settle in your bones. When tragedy strikes, it shakes him to his core and the emergence of Lotta, this 16-year-old girl, adds a different layer to his grief. Their dynamic is raw, a reflection of young love found in despair. The performances feel genuine, adding to the film's authenticity. It’s not flashy, but there's a haunting atmosphere that lingers after the credits roll.
