Heartbreak Hotel
Directed by Colin Nutley
Produced by Sweetwater Production, TV4
A warm, playful comedy-drama about two middle-aged women navigating friendship, romance, and self-discovery through Stockholm's nightlife.
Elisabeth and Gudrun are two Swedish divorcées, both over 40, who meet when Elisabeth parks her car on a loading zone and is ticketed by Gudrun. Despite this shaky start, a friendship grows between the two. Elizabeth, a gynecologist, is sexy and confident. She leads the shy Gudrun through the dangerous waters of single life. But as they cavort through the dance floors and bars of Stockholm's nightlife they are led to a deeper examination of the relationships with men.
