The Call-up
A lighthearted Swedish military comedy about old friends reuniting for conscription exercises, built on camaraderie, humor, and a budding romantic subplot.
It's time for Jonsson to return to his old regiment to rehearse what he learned during conscription a few years ago. He meets his old friends, platoon leader Larsson and the music loving captain 'Beethoven'. Jonsson and his comrades doesn't take it very serious - but they have a jolly good time. A female journalist follows the exercise to write an article, and gets interested in him.
