The success of A Film about Siw<\/em> keeps growing. Today, the film surpasses 57,000 cinema admissions, meaning it will reach 60,000 during its first month in theatres. A Film about Siw<\/em> is the second most-watched Swedish premiere of the year. \u201cWe\u2019ve had sold-out screenings, and it feels like everyone \u2013 truly everyone \u2013 has come to the cinema,\u201d says the cinema manager in Landskrona.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite an intense premiere period, there are no signs of the success slowing down. Audiences continue to flock to cinemas across the country, and word of mouth remains exceptionally strong \u2013 not least in towns that usually struggle to attract audiences to Swedish films. It\u2019s clear that the film has found a special place in the hearts of viewers.<\/p>\n

\u201cReaching almost 60,000 admissions during the film\u2019s first month is a dream scenario for a Swedish documentary. But what\u2019s even more impressive is that we\u2019re not seeing the usual slowdown after a month in theatres. On the contrary \u2013 interest keeps growing, and more and more people are finding their way to the cinemas to experience Siw\u2019s remarkable story. It\u2019s a wave of audience enthusiasm that shows no signs of stopping,\u201d says Jakob Abrahamsson, CEO of the film\u2019s distributor Nonstop Entertainment.<\/p>\n

Many people who rarely go to the cinema have been drawn back to experience Siw\u2019s life story together. \u201cI haven\u2019t been to the cinema since Grease<\/em>,\u201d said one visitor in Sandviken, who had now bought a ticket to A Film about Siw.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re so happy that films like A Film about Siw<\/em> are being made, because it proves that audiences want<\/em> to come to the cinema \u2013 we just need to give them a Swedish film that truly matters! With A Film about Siw<\/em> we\u2019ve got a real crowd-pleaser, the kind of film that gets people out of their homes and talking about it to everyone they know,\u201d says Susanna Holmkvist, Head of Marketing at Svenska Bio.<\/p>\n

And in Siw\u2019s hometown of Landskrona, the atmosphere at the local cinema has been exceptionally festive:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve played to sold-out screenings, and it feels like everyone \u2013 truly everyone \u2013 has come to the cinema to see our dear Siw on the big screen. Some more than once! The visit from Siw herself during the premiere weekend set off a celebration that hasn\u2019t stopped since, becoming the talk of the town here in Landskrona. By far, A Film about Siw<\/em> is our most-watched Swedish film of the year,\u201d says Yasmine Jabert, manager of Biograf Maxim in Landskrona.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A Film about Siw<\/em> is this autumn\u2019s great feel-good hit \u2013 a unique look into Siw Malmkvist\u2019s 88-year life and 70-year career. Through a newly discovered treasure trove of archival material, much of it filmed by Siw herself, audiences are taken on a journey from the humble housing projects of Landskrona to the grand apartment on Karlaplan, from the folk parks to Europe\u2019s biggest stages. The result is a personal, surprising, and endlessly entertaining journey through both Swedish cultural history and Siw\u2019s own colourful life.<\/p>\n

When Siw takes the lead \u2013 anything can happen. And now, she\u2019s got the entire Swedish cinema audience following along!<\/p>\n

A Film about Siw<\/em> is directed by Stina Gardell, with archival producer Frida Neema J\u00e4rnbert. Benny Andersson and Ludvig Andersson of RMV Film are co-producers. Siw Malmkvist herself appears both in front of and behind the camera. Additional co-producers are Nordsvensk Filmunderh\u00e5llning, Film Stockholm, Sveriges Television and Nonstop Winning Formula, with support from the Swedish Film Institute.<\/p>\n

A Film about Siw<\/em> continues to perform strongly in cinemas across Sweden and stands as one of this year\u2019s major Swedish box office successes.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n
