THE LAST JOURNEY
This “road movie” by popular Swedish TV hosts and journalists Filip Hammar and Fredrik Wikingsson, sees the duo take Hammar’s father Lars on a road trip to France.
Lars has recently retired after 40 years as a French teacher but instead of a “third age” of travel, wine and experiences with his wife, he has become passive and tired. By making the same road trip that the family used to make when Filip was a child, and staging some of life’s most beautiful moments, they hope to rekindle Lars’ spark.
This one-of-a-kind film is a heartfelt and deeply moving feature that blends humour, raw honesty and a life-affirming reflection on love, purpose and family bonds.
Feedback/Comments
Very moving
The movie was great. It took me about 3 min into the movie before I cried the first time. A lot of laughs too.
Funny, heartwarming movie
Awesome
Amazing film! The whole audience was laughing and crying, and laughing, and crying and ... This film tells an emotional story that most of us can or will identify wjth, several times in life, and across at least two different roles each one of us will play in real life. This is a wonderful film.
The film sparked conversations within the family and ignited some long overdue positive events and changes.
Thank you to the makers of this film for telling this story and touching the hearts of so many of us.
Good documentary
5 isn't high enough, this was worth 10 out of 5. Absolutely brilliant. My family and I iwere laughing and crying and cry-laughing all the way through!
Amazing! We laughed and cried at the same time! Must see if your parents are still alive! It was great to meet the producers after the show.
Always a bonus to have the filmmakers in attendance
Fabulous, funny, heartwarming, a must see for particularly all those with parents entering the “third age”.
Wonderful film.
Heart warming and heart breaking story.
Laughed and cried.
Highly recommend.
What a fantastic movie! Poignant, funny, and incredibly moving. Hubby and I were both in tears at the end. One of the best movies I've seen in a while - and I'm not into docos!
Excellent movie. So endearing and funny. Love it !
Must see. I will definitely organise friends and especially middle age family members to watch this movie. My husband and I and most of the audience burst out laughing so many times.❤️❤️
