Synopsis
HOME CARE
During Christmas time in Stockholm, Alex, a carer for the elderly, has struck a partnership with the charming Leon, one of his patients. Leon has become a mentor to him and enlists Alex to carry out petty crimes on his behalf, stealing from other elderly clients. Things change when Alex starts to question Leon’s motives, finding himself caught up in a family feud that goes increasingly out of hand.
Home Care is a film that challenges our stereotypes about elderly.
