Crayfish Require These Drinks
Geoff is bewildered by Swedish summer rituals that involve furniture and shots washed down with whipped cream. From 2020.
The little town of Yxsjö turns its mind to partying with the traditional celebrations for crayfish season.
Despite now being a fully paid up Swede, Geoff has still to be inaugurated into the mysteries of fishing for crayfish.
Meanwhile, his brother-in-law Anders claims to have a girlfriend, though there are rumours that she doesn’t exist. Will she make it to the party?
Danny Robins’ romantic Swedish comedy is partly recorded on location with a mainly Swedish cast.
