20-year-old Raša lives with her father in a small town in northwestern Skåne and works at a factory packing salads. When the factory announces redundancies, she loses her job and is forced to navigate a labour market where opportunities are few and demands are high. In order to receive benefits, she is expected to apply for jobs across the country, but Raša wants to stay close to her father and the life she knows.
Eat Sleep Die is a quietly humorous and perceptive portrait of the Swedish working class, where work is about more than making a living: it is about dignity, belonging and who you are allowed to be. Gabriela Pichler’s acclaimed feature debut has become a modern Swedish classic.
