La Familia
Det finns en tid i livet när vännerna är det viktigaste man har. Då de nästan är som en familj. Sedan brakar vuxendomen in och skickar gamla blodsbröder åt olika håll. Somliga flyttar till Stockholm, får titeln Senior Executive Business IT Development Manager och börjar låtsasälska Arsenal. Andra tar jobb i baren på hemstadens hetaste (och enda) uteställe och ligger med så många tjejer de kan för att slippa tänka på allt som är jobbigt. Någon nojar över sitt hårfäste, får manipulativa bonusbarn och utvecklar en kärlek till bensinstationskorv och På spåret. Och sedan finns det de som inte blir vuxna alls. Som helst fyller dagarna med TV-spel och Harry Potter-maraton och inte förstår varför ingen annan vill ta en tisdagsfylla längre. Oavsett vilken väg man väljer, händer det ibland att livet får sina egna idéer och vänder upp och ner på allting. Det är då man inser att man fortfarande behöver sina vänner. Sin familj.

OBS! Import. Kontrollera att språk och textning passar dig.Franka Potente stars in this made-for-TV remake of the classic 1959 German war film, which in turn is based on the autobiographical novel by Manfred Gregor. 16-year-old Walter (Lars Steinhofel) is having a secret affair with his widowed 29-year-old teacher Elfie (Potente). When Hitler's army begins mobilising its last troops, Walter and his friends are recruited to help defend a strategically important bridge near their town. What begins as a relatively minor operation quickly descends into a life or death battle in which the idealistic young men are confronted by the brutal reality of war. Despite Elfie's desperate attempts to stop her lover from taking part in a battle she can see is useless and unwinnable, Walter's pride and blind obedience to Hitler compel him and his friends to hold their position even as the last of their superiors concede defeat.Typ: DVD

La Familia Grande
»Jag valde att skriva, eftersom jag inte längre kunde tiga.» I La familia grande berättar Camille Kouchner om hur deras styvfar började förgripa sig sexuellt på hennes tvillingbror under hans tidiga tonår, övergrepp som pågick under flera år. Camille och hennes syskon växte upp i en känd fransk vänsterintellektuell familj. Pappan var medgrundare av Läkare utan gränser och senare utrikesminister, mamman en uppburen juridikprofessor, författare och stridbar feminist. Föräldrarna skildes när barnen var små och deras mor gifte om sig med en högt aktad statsvetare och politiker. På styvfaderns sommarställe i Sydfrankrike samlas prominenta vänner ur 68-vänstern för att njuta av sol, bad och fri sex. Prydhet häcklas och barnen uppmuntras att delta i de vuxnas lekar. La familia grande är en dotters modiga uppgörelse med de medlemmar av den stora familjen som visste, men som valde att tiga. Boken fick enorm uppmärksamhet när den kom ut i Frankrike 2021.Camille Kouchner, född 1975, är advokat och docent i juridik. La familia grande är hennes debutbok.»200 sidor perfektion!»Go'kväll, SVT»Hennes språk är kort, kärnfullt och liksom andlöst fint tolkat av översättaren Maria Bodner Gröön. Det är sällan man verkligen känner hur mycket det har kostat av skuld, skam och svåra minnen för en författare att berätta. Meningarna jagar över sidorna, men Kouchner får ändå genast med sig mig in i mörkret kring den komplexa familjehemligheten.»Dagens Nyheter»Hennes bok är en otäck berättelse om hur 60- och 70-talens sexuella revolution kunde användas som en kuliss för övergrepp mot barn, berättad av en insider. (...) På ett naket och rumphugget, faktiskt poetiskt språk, gör hon upp med bristen på empati i ett samhälle där barns rättigheter alltid kommer i andra hand. Det blir en modig uppgörelse, inte bara med dåtidens förövare, utan också med de högt uppsatta som vet vad som pågår, men som fortfarande väljer att blunda.»Expressen»Det är ingen vacker bild Camille Kouchner, på effektiv, korthuggen prosa, tecknar av de vuxna hon som barn var utlämnad åt. (...) Kouchners skildring av ett i det närmaste tvångsmässigt dyrkande av frihet och ett kategoriskt avvisande av förbud väcker många frågor. Bör verkligen allt vara tillåtet? Är frihet under tvång frihet överhuvudtaget? Förutsätter frihet egoism? Och är frihet verkligen det högsta värdet av alla?»Svenska Dagbladet

Bridges of the World
Fifty bridges from all over the world to be crossed on foot or with one's imagination. Throughout history bridges have been used as a way to link people, places and cultures. Whether a natural arch or a man-made feat of engineering, bridges can be both beautiful and functional, each in a unique relationship with the land around it. And the stories that accompany these bridges are just as fascinating: the legends, anecdotes and the inspirational lives of those who designed, built and crossed them. This book celebrates some of the world's best bridges of all description: great icons such as the Tower Bridge in London, the Charles Bridge in Prague and the Golden Gate in San Francisco; a precarious thread stretched between the Twin Towers by an acrobat; treasures destroyed and rebuilt, like the Mostar Bridge in Herzegovina; and a streak of frozen snow between the crevasses of a glacier.

”Ölandsbrons skarvar smäller i däcken. Minns att under de första åren, när bron var ny, stod ölänningarna i klasar längs vägkanten och tittade förundrat på fastlänningarnas invasion. Det gör de inte längre. Annars är det mesta sig likt, här rör sig tiden långsamt. Jag ser vänskap, glädje, kärlek, ett uppbrott och en sorg. Det finns så mycket fulhet här. Det finns så mycket skönhet här.” / Simon Johansson
