Ego

Drama ø 2013 ø 105 mins ø LANGUAGE: Swedish ø DIR: Lisa James Larsson ø CAST: Martin Wallström, Mylaine Hedreul, Sissela Kyle, Peter Andersson

Martin Wallström (Easy Money III: Life Deluxe) plays the conceited Sebastian Silverberg, an attractive young man whose life is all about appearance, parties and material possessions. His days are spent “working” (playing with his iPhone) in an expensive clothing store with his best friend, but when the sun goes down, it is all about fancy nightclubs and one-night-stands with beautiful girls. His lifestyle has always prevented Sebastian from realizing his true gift as a singer and guitarist, until on his way out one night, an accident leaves him blind and angry at the world.

Despite his fervent objections, Sebastian’s parents hire Mia (played by a loveable Mylaine Hedreul) to spend some days as his carer. Gradually, Mia helps Sebastian re-evaluate his life and find joy outside of the scene of constant parties and empty relationships. Most of all, she encourages him to pursue his passion for music and develop his talents to show to the world.

This is a rom-com sure to delight with an irresistible cast complemented by splendid style we have all come to expect from the Swedes.
