Filter

Agnes, 42, runs the lifestyle blog Vardagar vid kusten with 95,000 followers. On the surface, her life is filled with calm and polished everyday moments - but behind the images, the facade cracks. Her marriage to Henrik is falling apart, and after a misstep during a trip to France, Agnes doesn't know how to move forward.

She flees to her mother's house, convinced it will be empty while Eva is on holiday. But when Agnes has settled in, Eva appears - and seems to have been in an accident. What happened? Both mother and daughter carry secrets, carefully hidden from each other and the world. In their encounter, reality begins to break through the layers of filters, pretences, and self-deceptions built up over the years.

Filter is a dramedy about loneliness in our narcissistic age, about how digital lives can create distance rather than closeness, and about relationships that require more than perfect images to survive. The play is written by Emma Broström and directed by Anna Novovic, recently known for "När strippklubben kom till byn" and "Jag som var så rolig att dricka vin med". Performance length: 2 hours including intermission.
