After a six-year hiatus, Lukas Moodysson is back in the director’s chair with a 12-part TV series for HBO Europe. Any new work by Lukas Moodysson is going to be worth watching. His first television series, produced by HBO Europe, tackles many of the themes he has discussed in his seven narrative features, from 1998’s Fucking Åmål (aka Show Me Love) to his 2013 teen punk musical We Are the Best!, which played at the Venice Film Festival. The 12-part series Gösta is a comedy that mocks Swedish niceties, featuring stories about refugees, broken families, failed relationships and the desire to do good, with a particular focus on teen lives. Vilhelm Blomgren's character of Gösta is at the heart of each of the half-hour episodes. Gösta has just transferred to the small village of Småland, where he is starting his career as a psychiatrist. Gösta wants to be kind to.
