ImdbA Swedish gay couple adopt what they think is an 18-month-old orphan, only to meet their new son, a 15-year-old homophobic delinquent.
A priceless recc by
mushroom18 (thanks a lot!!). I must have rewatched my favorite moments a dozen times already. So bittersweet and heart-warming!
Patrik is rather adoptable, to be honest. One does not believe nobody would want him.
I liked Sven's ex-wife, whom I recognized as Mikael Blomkvist's lawyer sister in the Millenium original trilogy.
But my absolute favorite character is Göran, the big-hearted mother hen who accepts Patrik right from the start. I was later surprised to find the actor's name is
Gustaf Skarsgård, son of
Dr. Erik Selvig, and brother of
Eric Northman. Almost his entire family is on imdb.
Göran is a family doctor who makes life sweeter to everybody around him.
And a hell of a motherly dad.
