Situation Sverige

Directed by Mikael Wiström

Growing up too fast. Or as Marco from the Gävle suburb Sätra puts it: "There are too many who become a man overnight, here in my area". When he was a child, his mother Carmen suffered a serious accident and Marco's upbringing became tough. But Marco has found his own way away from the crime and the violence he was about to be drawn into. It is also a suburb where messy youth and racist reactions threaten existence and how Facebook player Joakim Lamotte is treated when he arrives at the site. A film by Mikael Wiström.
