However, these aren’t the usual flesh eating zombies. After a sudden intensification of the electrical field, it’s gone but in it’s wake, the recently dead in the area have awakened. Sweden is experiencing a weird electrical surge that leaves people unable to turn off or unplug their electronics, and it also seems to be giving everyone some wicked headaches. What kind of dilemmas would this cause society? For example, if this actually happened in Stockholm, I’m sure that that the publishers of Stieg Larsson’s books would chain his zombified ass to a desk and let him bang on the keys of a laptop until they got enough to put out a new bestseller, The Girl Who sJFnfJGgJOJ=I30&*(&U389kkl8.īack to this book. The film is co-produced by Zentropa Sweden, with co-financing from Oslo Film Fund, the Norwegian Film Institute, the Swedish Film Institute and Nordisk Film which handles Scandinavian distribution.In this book, the corpses of the recently dead in Sweden become reanimated which leads to numerous legal, political and ethical issues when it comes to dealing with folks who aren’t technically alive. Filming is due to start late summer 2022. Top cinematographer Pål Ulvik Rokseth ( 22 July, Amundsen) who worked with Hvistendahl on her earlier films, is attached to the project, alongside editor Trude Lirhus ( State of Happiness, Young & Promising). The project is the directorial debut of rising talent Thea Hvistendahl, known for the short films Virgin4lyfe (SXSW selected), Children of Satan (2019) and hybrid music doc The Monkey and the Mouth (Adjø Montebello).
Speaking earlier to, Emblen said: “The film is about accepting what we cannot control, told through a multiple strand story where the characters experience how it could be to bring their loved ones back to life, if only for a short moment.” It is written by Swedish genre specialist John Ajvide Lindqvist ( Border, Let the Right one In) from his own eponymous novel, published in 2004 and translated into English in 2009.
