Britt-Marie var här (2019)

Based on the best-selling novel from Fredrik Backman, author of "A Man Called Ove." Britt-Marie Was Here is directed by Tuva Novotny (who recently made a strong impression in Annihilation) and tells the story of a woman who leaves her husband after 40 years to find new meaning in life. Backmans particular brand of witty humor and inspiring themes of self-discovery have effectively been captured here, with a stand-out performance by Pernilla August (Fanny and Alexander, Beyond).
