I haven’t seen Lilja 4-ever.  I really wanted to but it was only out here for 1 week.  Don’t know if you knew already but based on a true story.

The same director also did [i]”Tillsammans” & "Fucking Åmål"[/i] (“Together” & “Show me love") which is also a brilliant films.  They are much more uplifting than “Lilja 4-ever”.
