Lilya 4-Ever (2002)

In a hard turn from his sunny earlier efforts, director Lukas Moodysson delivered this stunning and fact-inspired opus concerning Lilya Michailova (Oksana Akinshina), an adolescent from a breakaway Soviet republic callously abandoned by an America-bound mother to face a heartbreaking spiral of abuse and sexual exploitation from the loutish locals.

In a dingy apartment, teenager Erik (Björn Almroth) had to turn to ambient noise music, or whatever was available, to block out the fatuous efforts of his father (Thorsten Flinck) and a buddy (Goran Marjanovic) to crank out an amateur porno with an egregiously exploited leading lady (Sanna Bråding), in Lukas Moodysson's explicit and controversial effort. 98 min. In Swedish with English subtitles. C/Rtg: NR

Container (2006)

Mammoth (2009)

A successful web developer (Gael García Bernal) and his ER surgeon wife (Michelle Williams) have difficulty finding time to spend with their young daughter, who is mainly attended to by their Filipino nanny (Marife Necesito) at their Manhattan home.

We Are The Best! (2013)

Three middle-school girls from Stockholm channel their anxieties about adolescence into music by forming their own punk band. While their skills are shaky at the start (only one of them actually knows how to play an instrument), the girls press on, determined to boldly articulate the indignities of their lives through song...as long as emerging real-life complications don’t destroy their artistic ambitions. Honest, lively Swedish drama stars Mira Barkhammar, Mira Grosin, and Liv LeMoyne. 102 min. In Swedish with English subtitles. C/Rtg: NR
