The debut feature of Swedish director Roy Andersson, this deceptively simple romantic drama tells the story of the relationship that develops between two Stockholm teenagers, Annika (Ann-Sofie Kylin) and Par (Rolf Sohlman). Meeting at a family gathering in the countryside at the height of summer in 1970, the two youngsters have soon carved out their own passion-infused reality, oblivious to the disillusionment and social tensions in the adult world that surrounds them.
