Home In You

Favourite
The Haddad family is forced to move when their landlord in “Smedsby” decides to renovate all apartments, a crisis that threatens to split the already divided family.

The Haddad family find themselves on the verge of eviction as gentrification pushes them out of their Stockholm suburb, Smedsby. As they scramble to find a new home during an idyllic Swedish summer, the family clashes with each other and with their surroundings. The immigrant parents from Lebanon strive to understand their more assimilated children, who grapple with the challenges of adolescence and dual identities. Amidst this turmoil, they embark on a journey of self-discovery, seeking not only a new home in Sweden but also a sense of belonging within their own family unit.

Driven by the unique perspective of its creators, who pour their history into the story, Home In You is a series that sheds light on societal problems surrounding immigration and gentrification – delicately balancing serious topics with humour and warmth.
