The Heart



Fanni Metelius : 2018
Hjärtat

Photographer Mika and music producer Tesfay prove to be each other's first great loves. With their talents, her blonde hair and his black dreads, they are a beautiful couple that fits in perfectly in today's Sweden. After a period of courtship, parties, sex and getting to know each other, they decide to live together. For the outside world, this hip couple presents an ideal picture, but things start going wrong between the sheets. An insidious power game is in play, with its rules changing like music beats at the parties in Gothenburg, Stockholm and Ibiza. Behind closed doors and beautifying filters lies a raw reality where Mika's control over her mind and body is at stake. But Mika rips apart relationship prejudices and explores what really makes our pulses quicken in matters of the modern heart. Fanni Metelius's feature debut premiered in the Bright Future section at International Film Festival Rotterdam 2018.
