Everlasting Moments
15, Key Cities

Awaydays
18, Nationwide

Oh, what heaven, what joy, and if you don’t bother to see Everlasting Moments, then you are a bigger fool than I thought you were. (If it were possible.) It’s a Swedish period drama, set around 1900, and is full of simple yet rich, old-fashioned pleasures and not a single action sequence bar a hat blowing off at one point.
