Review of Sweetwater

Sweetwater (1988)
7/10
Has got a great nerve
2 August 2023
Lasse Glom's last feature film before turning to TV-series is this dystopian Norwegian dramathriller Sweetwater.

A family is forced to move out of the city after a harrowing war, finding a new place to live on a big landfill, where they are not alone.

Some of the most profilic Norwegian actors at that time is making out the strange humans meeting up at this landfill. Therefore you don't know what to expect, and I like that kind of movies.

The film gives room for thought, which is what dystopian movies pretty much should do.

This film needs a new restored release, and then i think most will see it's qualities. It's even more actual now than what it was back in the cold war era. So give it a go, if you get the chance.

This movie is made available in 2023 when it was released on interregional Blu-Ray Disk by Norwegian Film Classics as the third release in a new series on classics, NFK0003, with subtitles in English, and is supposed to be held in stock for film lovers.
