Together

Aroview: An affectionate yet affecting satire set on a domestic commune in mid-1970s Stockholm that challenges the principled ideologies of its members with the realities of social integration and relationships, and compromises that people must make in order to stay “together”.

Bringing an ideal ensemble premise to life with tremendous nuance, wisdom and a cast of memorable characters, this contains the hallmarks of the best period pieces – particular to a time (with its gender and social politics) but altogether contemporary and timeless. And there’s some great Swedish hippie-rock, besides.
