Once You Shall Be One of Those Who Lived Long Ago

En gång skall du vara en av dem som levat för längesen

In a mining town in the north part of Sweden we witness a melancholic, humorous and sometimes absurd last epoch of a place. Cracks in time have emerged due to the resources beneath the ground and the past seems reluctant to let go of the people who still wander on its battered body. An elegy for Malmberget, a town dissolving back into the earth from which it was built.
