EVIL

16-year-old Erik's life is tainted by violence and conflict. When he is expelled from school, he is sent to the boarding school Stjärnsberg as a last chance to break free from his old life and continue his studies. But Stjärnsberg is hardly a refuge - here evil is systemised in the form of condoned oppression of younger students by the older ones. Can Erik revolt against the harassment without breaking the rules and risking being expelled? Can he maintain dignity without being drawn into the violent spiral that is threatening his entire future? Evil is a story of violence and the way through it - but also about genuine friendship and the beginnings of love.

Nominated for an Academy Award in the "Best Foreign Language" category in 2004.
