• Society as we know it is gone. In Sweden it is summer – and a state of war. Militias rule the land. Through the wilderness, Anna and her younger brother Erik cross the country. They hide in forests and fields, avoiding people and communities – there, death awaits.
• She is a war veteran, he has a sound inside his head and sees sunbeams radiating through the trees. The journey will not only test their endurance and ingenuity. Along the way, Anna and Erik are also forced to confront the threats within themselves. What happens to the loyalty between sister and brother when the world around them is collapsing? Where does one go when there is nowhere to escape?
• ”Sommaren, Syster” is a film in development based on the Swedish author Jerker Virdborg’s novel. Marcus Söderlund is currently working on the script together with Johan Wirfält.
