Stockholm

About This Movie

So, 'Stockholm' is this quirky comedy that flips the typical kidnapping narrative on its head. You’ve got Viswanathan, this 60-year-old guy who’s kind of living in the shadows, totally overlooked by his own family. The strange twist is when these bumbling goons abduct him, thinking he’s just another liability. But instead of the usual tension, there's this bizarre camaraderie that forms between them. The pacing shifts from frantic to oddly heartwarming, as you watch Viswanathan connect with his captors. It’s interesting how it plays with themes of loneliness and unexpected friendship, all while a cop is lurking, trying to piece everything together. The performances are solid, bringing a lightness to a premise that could have gone dark. Definitely has that distinct indie feel.
