Britt-Marie var här

Britt-Marie var här Britt-Marie Was Here

Based on the bestselling novel by Fredrik Backman, this warmhearted comedy finds Britt-Marie, age 63, suddenly re-considering her purpose and habits after leaving her husband of 40 years. Accepting a supremely unglamorous job at a ramshackle rec center in the backwater town of Borg, she finds herself taking an interest in the daily routines of the town's oddball denizens, who all seem perfectly content to be stuck in their ways. Determined not to do the same, she takes on the impossible task of coaching the children's soccer team and draws the attention, and possible affections of a handsome police officer. Perhaps there is an opportunity for a second chance after all…
