The Girl, the Mother and the Demons is a poignant story about Ti and her mother, who battles mental illness. The film courageously and vibrantly balances sorrow, horror, and humor, telling a story of life’s greatest challenges, but also about a girl who is as strong as Pippi Longstocking – though on the inside.

The film captivates with its beautiful cinematography, uniquely capturing the love between parent and child. Suzanne Osten bases the film on her own childhood, delivering a portrayal that is as colorful as it is deeply moving, exploring a child’s love and loyalty. Osten boldly addresses difficult topics and has long been a groundbreaking voice in Swedish cultural life, especially in children’s and youth culture, where she has challenged and transformed norms.
