Britt-Marie Was Here
Britt-Marie Was Here
Based on the bestselling novel by author Fredrik Backman (A Man Called Ove), this warm-hearted comedy-drama finds Britt-Marie, age 63, suddenly reconsidering her purpose in life after she discovers her husband of 40 years has been cheating on her. Accepting a supremely unglamorous job at a ramshackle youth center in the backwater town of Borg, she reluctantly takes on the impossible task of coaching the children’s soccer team to victory. Despite having no experience and no resources, Britt-Marie is invigorated by the team's infectious energy and, for the first time maybe ever, allows herself to step out of her comfort zone—and into a potential romance with a charming local police officer. Anchored by an affecting performance from Swedish stalwart Pernilla August (Fanny and Alexander), this sophomore feature from actor turned director Tuva Novotny (Blind Spot) is a tender, droll reminder that it's never too late for second chances.
