G - 21 Scenes from Gottsunda (Loran Batti, Sweden 2024)
Gottsunda is one of Europe’s most drug infested areas and considered one of Sweden’s most dangerous suburbs, a so called ‘no-go-zone’. It is also the childhood home of our main character Loran Batti. Loran is an aspiring filmmaker who is striving to move from Gottsunda and start his career but is hesitant to leave his childhood friends behind, the only people that truly understands him.
As the film progresses the friction between Loran and his friends grows stronger. They are active criminals while Loran has chosen another path for himself. He is trying to remember what it was like during the 90’s when they all grew up while battling the reality of anytime getting that call. That call from a crying mother about a lost brother.
G - 21 Scenes from Gottsunda takes us behind the media’s narrow reflection of the violent suburb and gang violence in Sweden and into the community who lives the reality of Gottsunda. An unfiltered glimpse into our everyday life of conflict, community, fraternity and exclusion.
In Swedish with English subtitles.
