Summary A camera captures life in the fictional Swedish city of Jöteborg.
Directed By: Ruben Östlund
Written By: Ruben Östlund
Top Cast
One of the quirkiest Swedish films of recent memory, “The Guitar Mongoloid” has all the makings of a cult classic.... A dark, but also humorous, depiction of a society with lonely people and sudden outbursts of violence.
Distant, enigmatic, fragmented, and possessing a dead-eyed steeliness in the tradition of Michael Haneke, Tsai Ming-liang, and Ulrich Seidl. The Guitar Mongoloid is a quilt of moments, set pieces, and voyeuristic opportunities building to no specific thematic idea.
Mr. Ostlund’s 2004 debut, begins as a free-floating portrait of mischief and compulsion — a cousin to Harmony Korine’s “Gummo” that comments obliquely on fascism and violence.
