Pia Sjögren was the subject of three documentaries by director Tom Alandh, beginning in 2001. He first saw her on the street selling newspapers, homeless, addicted to drugs, trying to make enough money for the day. Since then, she has become clean, and now gives lectures about her experiences, sharing her knowledge. This is the fourth film about her, filmed between 2011-2020. At the start of this installment, Pia has recently begun having heart and breathing issues, her own daughter is in prison for narcotics, and her mother, who we were introduced to in previous installments, continues to struggle with rapidly decreasing eyesight.

It is more than forty years ago and the story is almost forgotten, the one about Inger Svensson, a young woman from Öland who wanted to be a priest when the resistance against female priests was the hardest. When the woman would be silent in the congregation and only the man could proclaim the word of God. A film about faith and doubt, about hope and despair and deepest sorrow. And whether to forgive our debtors.

In this documentary we meet five children in Sweden and see what happened in their lives. Robin was nine years old, but he already knew what a prison looked like and the bad a punishment can do. Frida was not yet born when we filmed her mother Angela in 1983. Her sister Malin lived for several years in a foster family. Bosse was 14 years old and in 9th grade when we met him in 1978. He was the only guy in the class who had glasses. Marie received many postcards and letters from her father, but very rarely met him while she was growing up.

Ten years after documentary filmmaker Tom Alandh started filming homeless drug addict Pia Sjögren, he makes his third and final film about her. Pia was 14 years old when she started smoking cannabis and using drugs. Then it all happened really fast. The heavier drugs, the men who beat, and years of cold nights in basements and attics. Treatment and punishment. Rehabs and prisons. Relapse. Constantly back, at the complete bottom, among shame and guilt. For ten years, Tom Alandh and photographer Björn Henriksson documented Pia's life. Two films were made, this is the third and last film, which shows how she managed to get clean against all odds.

Documentary about wheel-chair bound stand-up comedian Jesper Odelberg. He was born with cerebral palsy and largely uses this as his material, but mixes his comedy with an overall serious message about inclusion and understanding.
