Paradise is Burning
Paradiset brinner
Synopsis
A working-class area in Sweden. Laura (16), Mira (12) and Steffi (7), live alone, as their mother is often gone. When social services demand a meeting, Laura must find someone to play their mom, to avoid foster care and the three sisters being separated.
Laura keeps this a secret, as not to worry her younger sisters, but frictions arise with the meeting inching closer, hanging them on a thin line between the euphoria of freedom and the depths of discomfort.
