Misa Mi

When her mother died, 10 year old girl Misa's world stopped. And when her father, along with his new girlfriend, wants to spend the summer in the Swedish province Skåne, she refuses to go with them. Misa's father reluctantly agrees that she can stay with her grandmother in Arjeplog over the summer instead. In the deep forest of northern Sweden, Misa find more than she ever could imagine; she meets a wolf with cubs that Misa develop a deep and strange connection with. But the wolf spreads fear in the small village and someone has hired a poacher to kill it and her cubs...

Directed by Linus Torell, Misa Mi leans on a strong ensemble — Kim Jansson, Lena Granhagen, Magnus Krepper — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about family titles of 2003.
