THE ANDERSSON BROTHERS


Sweden 2024 – Director: Johanna Bernhardson





The film world of the star director Roy Andersson is inhabited by
people who are incapable of emotionally connecting to each other.
He seems to feel the same about his brothers in real life. THE
ANDERSSON BROTHERS, made by his niece, the filmmaker Johanna
Bernhardson, is a lovingly told family chronicle about stubborn
men and a tale that seeks to bring about reconciliation before it
is too late.
