Ruben Ôstlund’s third feature is inspired by authentic cases in which groups of young boys robbed other children in central Göteborg. What was remarkable about the robberies was that they followed an elaborate role-play
which tricked the victims without resort to violence or threats.
Behind the lens of a distant documentary-style camera, the audience becomes observer and witness to a study of human behaviour that is as chilling as it is breathtaking.
