Short description

Despite being deposed as president of his condominium association, grumpy 59-year-old Ove continues to watch over his neighbourhood with an iron fist. When pregnant Parvaneh and her family move into the terraced house opposite Ove and she accidentally back into Ove’s mailbox, it sets off a series of unexpected changes in his life.

What's left behind the scenes

The film is based on the novel of the same name by Fredrik Backman.
Actor Rolf Lassgård, who played the main role in the film, turned 59 years old by the time filming began. He is the same age as his character, Ove Lindahl.
