It's hard to describe how I felt during the movie and after watching it. I'm surely contented that I'm not living in such a place - where anytime I can get a phone call saying that my friend was murdered. Because that's how the district of Swedish city Uppsala, Gottsunda is - dangerous and devouring a man in full. Batti does not embellish this district - he records every possible moment to show the horrors that take place there.

It's a district where even small children swear and show you the middle finger, where childhood friends of Batti deal drugs and go into the jail (not for the first time).

But there is a word that fits these people - brotherhood. Once friends, always brothers.

The scenes of interviews with certain people are very important. Here, two worlds collide - the memory of Gottsunda from childhood and the present. Nothing is the same anymore.

This movie is a courageous return to the past from which Batti desperately wanted to escape. Brave and needed - especially for him.

"Not everyone can be like Zlatan Ibrahimovic" - even though he didn't grow up in Gottsunda, the similarity of his early life makes this thought a keynote for the Gottsunda's residents.
