Evil

Ondskan
2003 113 min NR Drama

It's time to take a stand.

Tough love meets J-Giallo through the lens of a Swedish Tarkovsky wannabe. Stockholm 1956, Erik’s fresh expulsion forces his mom to ship him to Stjärnsberg boarding school where the headmaster runs a charm-free meritocracy. A year of caned knuckles and Arctic tolerance, buoyed by one schooled naïf who learns silence is louder than fists.

Directed by Mikael Håfström · Written by Mikael Håfström, Hans Gunnarsson

Starring Andreas Wilson, Henrik Lundström, Gustaf Skarsgård, Linda Zilliacus, Jesper Salén, Mats Bergman
