Love, love, love…children and parents form with some exceptions love
bonds. When the social services separate children from their parents
they do not care about these love bonds. Nor do they care that they
damage the child for life by not allowing the children to have their
parents´ and grandparents love. Without love the child cannot grow to
a whole moral person. This film is about the suffering caused by
today´s inhumane system. With children taken into forced custody
without weighing risks in an adequate way and according to Swedish
fundamental law, Swedish family law and in accordance with human
rights.

An international jury overview the sections of short films coming from all over the world. We prefer documentaries which succeed in representing the complexity of reality and discover in a new way its sensible and perturbing aspects on the same time accentuating the ambivalent and enigmatic status of reality in avoiding sterotypes and simplifing conclusions.
