Border 2018

Do you remember when you were a tiny child, back before you learnt that poo stank? That scent is what Swedish shocker Gräns / Border smells like.

A unique looking customs officer literally sniffs out the sins of the passengers that pass her. Then, one day she meets a mysterious stranger that shares her same secrets, both visible and hidden.

Everything about this film will make you feel like you're in the wrong zoo, looking at animals you don't recognise and wondering if you like the experience or not.

I can't promise you'll appreciate Border (winner of Un Certain Regard at the 2018 Cannes festival) , as I'm not even sure I did. I feel confident saying, however, that you won't see anything else like it again this year.
