Daybreak - [Trans. Om jag vänder mig om] R2 Released



Daybreak - [Trans. Om jag vänder mig om] R2 Released in Sweden.

This is an excellent drama that has brilliant performances by the cast. The big picture of the story is destiny... Unfortunately, it does not have English subs...

Cheers ,

The film is about family issues and the problematic moments that these issues bring to the surface. Outwardly one family seems perfect, but as you probably understand there is much more going on underneath the surface when the family closes the doors. The other family struggles as the husband works 24/7 in order to provide for the family. One job that the husband takes as a mason as a third family asks to seal the windows with bricks. The third family lives in denial as they suffer of disappointment as their daughter has disappeared. Thus, they do not want to participate in the social world and as a symbolic gesture they seal their windows. The lies, betrayal, and pain that the families venture through this cinematic experience are both painful and compassionate for the audience.

"Om jag vänder mig om" the Swedish title means, If I turn my back... which triggers some interesting notions.

"Om jag vänder mig om" translates to "If I turn around".

Well, I translated it in context to the film and the story, but yes you are right as you translated it word for word.
