The Superlative music documentary tells the story of how "four Viking invaders plundered the Anglo Saxon pop charts." The film reveals how they made the normal things in life seem otherworldly via perfect pop productions shot through with a very Swedish melancholy. New interviews with band members and talking heads including Kim Wilde add color.
