Kevlar Soul

Alex and Robin live on the edge of a Swedish industrial town with their father – a violent, alcoholic man broken by life. Older brother Alex tries to hold things together, calming their father’s rages and caring for Robin while carrying burdens far beyond his years. When lively, self-assured Ines enters the scene, she and Alex form a fragile connection. Robin, feeling left out, turns elsewhere for comfort – and slides toward danger.
