Gull-Pian

Gull-Pian is a 1988 Swedish film directed by Staffan Götestam and based on the novel of the same name by Astrid Lindgren.

The merchant Eriksson is horrified that her aunts have sent Eva such a long way just to get potato flour during this weather.

She sees that Berit has thrown her beloved doll Via-Lisa into the dirt.

Angrily, she slams the flour on the table, into her aunts and cousin's faces and tells them that she doesn't care about any of them.

[4] Filmtipset.se called Gull-Pian a fantastic but also sad film, because of Eva being treated so unfairly, but ultimately, it has a great end, and is also very moving.

The two main actresses, Zara Zetterqvist and Hanna Alström, are praised for their performances.

The child's perspective on loneliness, grief, family and hope are shown.
