The Here After (2015)

Swedish pop star Ulrik Munther shows off his acting chops (among other things) in the foreign film The Here After (2015), not to be confused with Clint Eastwood’s American movie Hereafter (2010) starring Matt Damon. Under the pen and direction of Magnus Von Horn, this critically-acclaimed drama reminds audiences that some people never forgive and forget. The story begins two years prior when a juvenile named John (Munther) let his anger get the best of him which resulted in the death of his girlfriend. After serving time in prison, he returns home to his family, hoping to start a new life. But when the cute convict arrives, he finds his father (Guldbagge Award winner Mats Blomgren) isn’t super pleased to see him. If that’s not bad enough, the community is forming a lynch mob to deliver the justice they feel John deserves. Will he be able to win over another love interest (Loa Ek) or will he be forever deemed a loser? More importantly, will the dude doff his duds? Thankfully, the answer to the latter question is yes. During a locker room scene, he and his classmate Kim (Oliver Heilmann) strip off their clothes to hit the shower. As such, we get to see their bare buns, naked pecs, and skinternational junk! Maybe that’s why the pic picked up Best Film at the Guldbagge Awards. Also known as Efterskalv, this Nordic Noir flick features dialogue in Swedish. But when Ulrik and Oliver appear in the nude, there’s no need for subtitles!
