The Swedish film Ur Spar (2022) (Off Track) is a comedy that has three main focuses: (a) infertility and how to deal with the frustrations it brings, (2) how to push and motivate a mother to be more responsible, as well as how to persuade her for taking a better care of her daughter, and (3) how to participate in a tough ski race that requires persistence and a lot of physical preparation in advance to be fit enough to ski for 90 kilometers. The three focuses are very well tied together and the two main characters in the film are the reckless mother and her very determined brother, who is very keen on training and keeping himself fit, to be part of the ski race. The group of actors do a very good work, their interactions sometimes can be interestingly funny and I think the film achieved its goal i.e., be a light entertainment as well as at its end let us in a good mood.

When I saw the ratings of this movie I was very hessitative to watch it. ...BUT it appeared to be the perfect rom-com for the Holidays. The main characters act on a high level; perfect for this genre (Fredrik Hallgren and Katia Winter). The humor is perfectly balanced with the personal drama the characters have to deal with and the build up of the story is smooth and believeable. ...and who wouldn't fall in love with the picturesque shots of Sweden?! Go and watch it! Rate it positive; It's Swedish culture combined with a well written script and based in a beautiful landscape. Definitely worth a 9/10.
