The Escape
Salomon has achieved everything he ever wanted. From the outside it looks as if he is living the suburban dream with a good looking wife, kids and a nice house. But still he can't get rid of the feeling that something is lost and that he's constantly drifting apart from his family. A film about love, death and God.
You, the Living
In the Swedish city of Lethe, people from different walks of life take part in a series of short, deadpan vignettes that rush past. Some are just seconds long, none longer than a couple of minutes. A young woman remembers a fantasy honeymoon with a rock guitarist. A man awakes from a dream about bomber planes. A businessman boasts about success while being robbed by a pickpocket, and so on. The absurdist collection is accompanied by Dixieland jazz and similar music.
