A Holy Mess

Nobody in the family can quite say how the Christmas Eve gathering ended up in Monica's hands, but there she is, hosting Ulf, Simon, Oscar and Cissi, along with whatever each of them has been keeping from the others. Helena Bergström sets this modern Swedish family around one table and lets the strain build over a single weekend. Monica (Maria Lundqvist) just wants the holiday to hold together, and Ulf (Robert Gustafsson) is the first to test it.
