Movie Info

Gitarrmongot is a pseudo-documentary about different people from Gothenburg. Their stories are not connected, but they all have a thing in common; what they do or what they are goes beyond the norms of society. The main character is a boy with Down's syndrome who spends his days playing a guitar downtown.

Critic Reviews for Gitarrmongot (The Guitar Mongoloid)

All Critics (1) | Fresh (1)

Recurring motifs, such as fireworks, public transportation, and the socially inept figure prominently into the fabric of Östlund's mostly buoyant film.

Audience Reviews for Gitarrmongot (The Guitar Mongoloid)

Aug 19, 2009

I had hoped for a real documentary, but sadly it's just a pseudo-documentary.. Real life people portraying themselves(?)... It's odd I tell you and a real pain to watch from time to time too. Still it has it's amusing parts. Definitely not something for everybody.
