A bitter tale of revenge, The Best of Intentions (Han som ville henne så väl) shows us the dark side of justice as a father confronts his disabled daughter’s carer, a man he suspects of sexual abuse.

A stinging tale; Emil T. Jonsson (who directs and stars in this piece) creates the perfect mix of tension, suspense and mystery in this harrowing short film. Emil T. Jonsson and Per Ragnor (Let the Right One In) play their roles perfectly. Kjell (Per Ragnar) truly believes he loves his patient, and, so driven by hatred powerfully displays a man who has lost all sense of morality. The tension, questioning and relatively slow pace of this 15 minute film only heightens the panic of the final scenes.

In truth, very little nees to said about this piece, and due to it’s length it’s difficult not to give much away. What I can say with assurance is that you’ll struggle to find anything as thrilling in any format. This is undoubtedly one of the best shorts I’ve watched and it deserves all the praise it’s been given. I’ll be pressing everyone I know to go and watch this film.
