Personkrets 3:1

About This Movie

Personkrets 3:1 is this raw glimpse into the lives of Stockholm's marginalized. It doesn’t shy away from the gritty realities of addiction and mental illness. The pacing meanders, almost reflecting the aimless lives of its characters. You’ve got the young heroin addict couple caught in a cycle of despair, and then a poet whose madness seems to offer a strange clarity. It’s all very atmospheric, with a tone that swings between bleak and oddly poetic. The performances are unfiltered, feeling very much like a documentary at times. It’s a film that leaves you with more questions than answers, and that’s part of its charm—or maybe its challenge. It’s distinctive for its unflinching honesty and the way it refuses to romanticize its subjects.
