First Swedish press reviews out!

Sveriges Radio, Kulturnytt: “Gabriella Bier Sandegård har hittat två modiga, känsliga personer i Jasmin och Assi som gör dokumentären Love during wartime både rörande och ofta rolig.”

Tidningarnas Telegrambyrå: “Gabriella Bier lyckas väldigt skickligt förmedla stora känslor med få ord och en stark närvaro i bilderna.”

Dagens Nyheter: ”Love During Wartime lyfter på ett föredömligt sätt fram individuella människoöden bakom det infekterade läget mellan Israel och Palestina.”

Gabriella Bier will be interviewed on Sveriges Radio’s Kino tonight at 6.15pm. Next LDW screenings in Stockholm: tonight, tomorrow evening and Sunday morning! Check www.biorio.se or www.loveduringwartimemovie.com/screenings for more info.
