Boroondara Seniors Film Festival - A Man Called Ove
Welcome to Boroondara Seniors Film Festival - A Man Called Ove
Ove is a grumpy, rule-obsessed retiree who’s ready to give up on life – until a lively young family moves in next door and accidentally flattens his mailbox. What begins as irritation soon blossoms into an unexpected friendship that turns everything around. This drama comedy is about unexpected friendship, love and the importance of surrounding yourself with the proper tools.
Language: Swedish, with English subtitles
Rating: M
What to expect: A darkly humorous film with references to suicide.
