You can find two teasers for Omheten, plus Norlin's short film "Currents" at the following link:

The page is in svenska.

Enjoy,

So we are supposed to infer that Lina's playing a Nazi in this film?

It was a comment pointing towards that other thread where Lina first points at the egg with her left hand, considered a goof. I wondered if that was because she is lefthaned, which this Ömheten-teaser tends to rule out.

The screen text is:

I en stad som faller sönder
Några ungdomar på väg in i livet
söker sin framtid

Lina's note is:

Vi är lösa bitar en och samma kropp runt oss finns bara natt.

The best I can do with Google is:

In a city that is falling apart, some young people entering life are looking for their future.

Lina's note:

We are loose pieces of the same body. All around us is only night.

A real Swedish (correct) translation would be appreciated. :D

I would probably use "seeking" instead of "looking for".

Linas note/poem is composed of three parts:
Vi är lösa bitar - en och samma kropp - runt oss finns bara natt.
Thus: We are loose pieces - one single body - around us is only night.

The movie is set in Kiruna, a town that is literally falling apart. It sits on top of a large body of iron ore, and the activities in the mine makes the ground tremble and crack. Therefore, the whole town will be moved away from the dangerous area in a relatively near future. Some houses of historical and architectural value will be moved, the rest will just be demolished and new ones will be built on the new site.

One of the cracks:
