Reviews
In the unforgettable world of writer/director Lukas Moodysson's TOGETHER (Tillsammans), a group of young people all living under the same roof find themselves questioning their long-held social and political beliefs as the world rapidly changes around them. "Did we throw out the good with the bad?," "have we been too tolerant?," and "have we not been tolerant enough?" are just some of the many things these revisionists ponder as they make their way through the exciting and bewildering early 1970s.At the same time, in an ironic and poignant twist, the characters will find that despite their need for individual expression and freedom, what ultimately drives them is the overpowering desire to belong - to be "together." And it's this search for love and family -however unconventional and imperfect - it may turn out to be - that gives this warm, funny, and authentic comedy its charming and unique viewpoint.
