ADULT SUPERVISION
[ARKIPELAG]
At a parent-teacher night meeting, three men volunteer as chaperones for a school trip to a remote island: nebbish and twitchy Bill (Gustaf Skarsgård, OPPENHEIMER), confident and natural leader Bobo (Fares Fares, EAGLES OF THE REPUBLIC, 2025 AFI European Union Film Showcase) and relaxed and handsome Pontus (Linus Wahlgren). The three men quickly discover they are in for more than they bargained for, as they have to navigate hooligans, a severely bullied classmate, general teenage moodiness and, possibly worst of all, errant updates given to the class’ parent group chat, creating a barrage of accusations about their own responsibilities as adults. As tensions on the island mount and the men begin to lose control over the teens, the question of who is really in charge of whom emerges. Swedish author Alex Schulman’s directorial debut is an insightful and thrilling drama that investigates how the damage we suffer during the awkward years of our youth ripples throughout the rest of our lives. –Eli Prysant
