Plot – Spoilers:
Richard is shooting a porn movie in his flat in Sweden and has over, actors Tess and Geko. The shoot is scheduled over a few days and the group appear to be familiar and comfortable with each other. Sealed away from all of them, and even light, is Richard’s pale teen son Erik. Erik’s always dressed in black and listens to ambient noise music to drown himself from the action going on in the other rooms. He seems depressed and rambles theories to no one in particular to the point where his father is concerned about his mental health – even Geko feels sympathetic enough to request Tess to maybe give him some womanly care.

The shoot lumbers along until Tess overhears Richard and Geko discussing her body odour which offends her. Soon after this, the men mock shoot a scene of sexual violence which frightens Tess into storming out of the apartment.

A Hole in My Heart is essentially a sympathetic and existential examination of the psyche of burnt out actors in a low budget amateur porno by one of Sweden’s finest directors.

An anti-pornography, angry feminist movie with pro religious symbolism (crosses) The director (Lukas Moodysson) is really confused.

Funny that it has found an audience as an exploitation “shock” movie when it was supposed to be political, educational and PC preachy. FAIL

The same director that made “Lilya 4-ever” made this one 2 years later so I watched it. It sucks. Avoid.

This is not a movie for everyone, pacing is on the slow end but If this film speaks to you
the payoff is sublime. Crazy amounts of Easter eggs that flesh out the story.
Visceral portrayal of the lifelong effects of trauma: isolation, drug-abuse, violence,
fucked-up sex life etc.
Njoy!

a very solid representation of lower class swedish lifestyle – degeneracy, hedonism & single parenting

This was the best episode of IT´S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA that i´ve ever seen.
Does somebody know which season this is? And why is Danny De Vitos hair growing back?
Charlie Day sure changed his look.

This is a Experimental movie, like a fucked up Big Brother Show. There were no Skript, the actors had to improvise and they basically played themself.

Crazy- complete waste of time; especially when you have to sit and read subtitles. Amateur; script, direction, actors. There was a storyline comparing the quiet son who stayed secluded in his bedroom and his dad with the two porn actors on the other side of his closed bedroom door taking over the living room with their filming. This film is filled with so much negativity – there is no point- its like watching a confused dysfunctional lives of some unknown people’s amateur home film. That is how this film plays out including the camera work- swinging around, extreme closeups, up and down; very home film like. No porn distributor would ever buy the dad’s porn movie- horrible. Like I said real amateur. Watch this film if you like to think afterwards WTF did I just watch ( and not in an awesome, brain stimulating, heart beating way…), with that hollow empty feeling of not being satisfied at all – just wasted flixx time.
