Mats Öberg, born 1971 in Umeå, Sweden, has been living in Stockholm for many years, where he moved when he entered the Royal Academy of Music, where for two and a half years he studied individual music and, among other things, studied with the pianist Stefan Nilsson. Frank Zappa is one of Mats Öberg's idols. Together with drummer Morgan Ågren, Mats formed the group Zappatetoot early on, which only played Zappa covers. Then when Frank Zappa played in Stockholm in 1988, Mats and Morgon had the opportunity to meet him and also sit in the band. It was the beginning of a continued collaboration which meant that they both got to participate in the projects Zappa's Universe and Zappa at Lincoln Center in 1993.

A cinematic journey with singer Freddie Wadling, which in this bare but soulful portrait shows how he constantly breaking boundaries, there is always something new to discover. If the music as a way to survive.

Beautiful, sad, funny, grand and intimate, all in one. A moving film about Sweden in transition from one reality to another in the tumultuous period of 2019-2022, the start of a new era. Gang-related murders, explosions, the birth of a new political scene with the right-wing nationalist Sweden Democrats, with roots in white power movement, gaining increasing influence, plus the pandemic and climate change as well as war in Europe. And through it all, we live our lives, whilst big changes take place quietly. A film about a changing Sweden beyond the headlines.

An immersive cinematic experience. A film about the borders we build and the borders we cross.
