SOPOR which in Swedish means the equivalent to trash, is a Monty Pythonesque comedy about a day when all children one morning disappears, before the grown ups realize that the children has taken control over society, and takes the Swedish royal family hostage, and at a press conference explaining that SOPOR stands for "Sveriges Onödigforklarades protest organization" which means Swedens unnecessary peoples protest organization" - about giving every person a meaning.
The film is one of the last feature comedies by the popular comedian Tage Danielson, released four years before he died.
The film is a comedy which really takes the modern society up to discussion. A society where the grown ups are controlling everything, and where children and youngsters are obsolete hostages by grown ups, which from the children's point of view takes many bad decisions.
In a way you could also say this film defines criticism of modern socialism and Nordic social democracy, and even to the royal family. A society with no child work and no other demand than going to school.
I found the film both interesting and entertaining, and for fans of crazy comedies in Monty Python style and the likes, this film is very recommended.

I loved this movie as a child and I finally watched again as an adult. It was still great. There are very few jokes that would be called "problematic" even in year 2021. The first being that Gösta Ekman's character has a "funny lisp" and the other being that Margareta Krook plays the right wing politician Gösta Bohman. Having women play male characters to demean them is kind of old... However there might be a part of the joke that I don't understand since I wasn't alive at the time. And also there is a slight facial resemblance so that might be the whole of the joke. Also that Margareta Krook is dressed as Prussiluskan, the strict childcare worker from Pippi Långstrump.
Anyway, as usual, it's kind of depressing when political satire from the 70s and 80s is still relevant today. It's funny satire though.
And also you will learn a lot about Swedish politicians of yore which is useful for crosswords and Trivial Pursuit. Just last week there was a crossword with Ola Ullsten which I hadn't known without watching this movie as a child. Great!
