GUERRILLA (Gerilla) (2015) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Anders Hazelius

Written by - Anders Hazelius

Starring - Adam Palsson, Siri Hjorton-Wagner, Johanna Granstrom

"A young passionate feminist and a young man struggling to make the transition to a responsible adult meet and, despite their obviously diverging personalities bond. Gradually, this bond develops into something more than just a friendship while making a documentary project. 

GUERRILLA is a charismatic and exciting shout out for romanticism and the search for happiness in the modern world, which is seen as a fight against the systems and acceptance of political correctness. It is tender and fiery at the same time, with an exciting pace dictated by sharp editing that recall punk underground waves but also with a fair share of charming moments. 

Director ANDERS HAZELIUS defies the conventionalities of the romantic comedy drama not only through his stylistic choices, but also with his three dimentional display of his pivotal couple, characters shown as real people with their flaws, vulnerabilities and their strengths, far from being the archetypal leading figures in other films of the same genre. 

GUERRILLA is very entertaining and surprisingly full flavoured from its opening statement to its bittersweet finale."
