"After being the break-out buzz title in Cannes 2014′s Un Certain Regard section and taking home the jury prize, the multi territory picked-up Force Majeure was selected as Sweden’s official entry for this year’s Oscars. Contrarily to the gravity dependent sport that is featured in the film, Ruben Östlund is having the kind of year that is all uphill." --Eric Lavallee, IONCINEMA.com
FORCE MAJEURE (Turist, 2014)
An avalanche in the French Alps sends a father scurrying for his life, leaving behind his panicked wife and children, in Östlund’s examination of the conflict between social role and survival instinct.
PLAY (2011)
Unabashedly impolite, Östlund’s record of racially charged harassment and societal paralysis offers food for thought and fuel for fury.
INCIDENT BY A BANK (Händelse vid bank, 2009)
Based on an actual account of a bank robbery witnessed by two bystanders across the street, Östlund’s concise study of surveillance may remind some viewers of Michael Haneke’s Caché.
INVOLUNTARY (De ofrivilliga, 2008)
Described by Östlund as “a tragic comedy or a comic tragedy,” the director’s second feature draws uneasy laughter through five examinations of bourgeois group dynamics.
AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SCENE NUMBER 6882 (Scen nr: 6882 ur mitt liv, 2005)
A young man has second thoughts about his boast to jump from a bridge in this penetrating critique of peer pressure and the fragile male psyche.
GITARRMONGOT (2004)
Östlund’s mostly nonprofessional cast brings a documentary quality to this compassionate, humorous portrait of outsiders and nonconformists, focusing in particular on the titular musician, a young man facing dire obstacles in life.
