Daniel Sawka’s romantic dramedy Kärlek och andra diagnoser premieres in Swedish cinemas tomorrow, Friday, October 30. At the heart of the story are two young people on the autism spectrum who unexpectedly find love in each other. Blending humour, warmth, and relatable situations, Kärlek och andra diagnoser offers a fresh and heartfelt take on modern romance.

The film stars Carl Kristofferson and Tuva Beckman as Hans and Sophie. Both lead actors have been nominated for the prestigious TV4 Rising Star Award. The supporting cast includes Jonas Karlsson, Filip Berg, Nina Mårshagen, Shima Niavarani, Grynet Molvig, Angela Kovács, and Malte Hallgren.

The year is 1910 and the world is electric.

The great inventors are experimenting beneath the stars and Sofia from Cophenhagen’s Kattesundet is no exception. Her ancestors fatefully lost out on one of the greatest inventions of all time and ever since Sofia has kept a vigilant eye on her patents.

Sofia is a passionate soul who dreams of The Nobel Prize, yet she struggles to decipher the young men of the neighborhood. Could she invent a device to detect the perfect wavelength between people and save herself from the worst of heartbreaks – as well as her family from financial ruin?

The Remarkable Reinvention of Sofia Meucci is an intoxicating journey through the 1910s, with Sofia’s eccentric family at the center of the solar system; An Italian boar of a father, two work-shy aunts, a flying older brother, the brusque matriarch Mrs Thor and a sculptor mother who tosses mermaids into the canals of Copenhagen. It’s a beautiful celebration of ingenuity, breakdowns, radiologists and girls with hearts that soar faster than hot air balloons.

The official data for the third quarter of 2026 has been compiled, and Sweden’s most sold fiction title across all formats is Lars Kepler’s Medusa. Martin Widmark also comes in at No. 1, topping the children’s books list with The Kidnapping Mystery.

Anders Hansen’s The Achilles Heels of Your Brain meanwhile features at No. 3 on the nonfiction list, and Pascal Engman’s The Clan continues to make a showing on the paperback list for the second quarter running, placing at No. 5.

Moa Herngren’s new title, The Fallout, debuts on the quarterly lists and claims No. 5 in e-books and No. 6 in audio.

Norwegian actor Anders Baasmo has won Best Actor at the 2026 Seoul International Drama Awards for his leading performance in A Better Man. The acclaimed drama series also took home the Grand Prize in the International Competition, and the series creator Thomas Seeberg Torjussen was honoured with the Best Screenwriter award.

The series previously swept three prizes at Canneseries 2025, including Best Series and Best Performance for Baasmo. The SDA jury praised A Better Man as being “at the highest level in nearly every aspect, from writing and direction to performance,” calling it fully deserving of the Grand Prize.

Rock music has been my school.

Most of what I know about life and the world I have learned by listening to rock—and playing rock. My classroom has been the rehearsal space, the tour bus, and the stage, from Bodø, Berlin, Brisbane, Buenos Aires, Boston, to Bergen*.

Among other things, I have realized that people who take rock seriously haven’t understood a single thing.

And that people who don’t understand that rock is one of the most important things in the whole universe haven’t understood anything either.

This book was written with both of those thoughts working simultaneously.

Now it is your turn to learn these things. You swine.
