Rickard, his son and Eric, their grating flatmate, are three individuals that society has discarded. Adrift in a world of their own these misfits are joined by Tess, an adult actress, and their only friend Geko. What follows, lubricated by alcohol, disillusionment and anger, is a viscous swipe at every aspect of modern society, from class politics to cosmetic surgery, and an ultimately shocking denouement as their microcosm implodes. A Hole In The Heart is a brutal follow up to Moodysson's powerful ‘Lilya 4 Ever', and another shocking emotional tour de force.
