This Place Is Every Place
Dette er alle steder
A conversation between two sisters born and raised in Tensta, one of the failed 1970s urban renewal schemes in a Stockholm suburb. The Arab Spring that filled everyone with hope is discussed. Now most hope is gone and the suburbs are seen as potential flashpoints that only exude hopelessness.
