Energized by the second strong year in a row for Scandinavian cinema, a hybrid 45th Göteborg Film Festival will open with Christoffer Sandler’s “So Damn Easy Going” in main Nordic Competition, alongside Juho Kuosmanen’s “Compartment No. 6” and Eskil Vogt’s “The Innocents.”
Produced by Sweden’s Cinenic Film, the company behind Sundance 2019 best directing winner “And Breathe Normally,” the same-gender coming of age love story “So Damn Easy Going” comes after Göteborg has opened every single year since 2018 with a new film by an upcoming director. Göteborg has been pushing for gender equality for the last six-or-seven years, said Holmberg. This year, 48% of festival entries are directed by women, he added.
Further contenders take in San Sebastian hit “As In Heaven,” a period drama capturing budding young female consciousness; buzzed-up psychological thriller “Heartbeast”; female-centric road movie “Maya Nilo ”; and the awaited French village-set documentary tragicomedy, “Excess Can Save Us.”
