Greetings from the Woods

Inside and outside the well-kept hedges life carries on as usual. The King buys his daily newspaper. Bertil searches the parking lot for dogs to photograph. Hans and Gun-Britt is planting a big rock in their garden, trying to get their minds off it all. When darkness falls over the little village in the woods, the Indians gather for a meeting in the town house as angst, frustration and silent prayer echoes in the night. Over a period of four years director Mikel Cee Karlsson captured singular scenes from his old hometown in the middle of the swedish forest. Greetings from the Woods is a personal portrait of Swedish rural life stripped bare.
