Repugnant

Alex Schulman's first feature film Arkipelag is drawing wide attention from Swedish media as reviews land. Dagens Nyheter calls it a sharp dissection of masculinity, Expressen hails it as the year's most repulsive and beautiful film, Svenska Dagbladet calls it close to a bullseye, while Sydsvenskan condemns the child characters as repugnant. The polarised reactions are making the film a hot topic in the Swedish cultural debate.
