Killing Gavle
In the small city of Gävle, northern Sweden, there is an annual fight between local custodians and mischievous pagans for the spirit of Christmas. Each year since 1966, business owners have paid for a 13-metre (40ft) effigy of a goat to be made of straw and displayed in the central square from the first day of Advent. In 37 of those years, the goat has been burned down or damaged by shadowy outsiders, sometimes within a few hours of going up. In this film, residents from both sides of the goat conflict explain their hopes and motivations as Advent ticks down to Christmas

It kept you going I couldn't putt it on hold to get my coffee.
Very moving, very touching. For that alone, it deserves unalloyed plaudits.
I have become a huge fan of this movie and applaud Joe Fletcher for making it.
I smiled I bawled, I loved it.
Joe Fletcher did a wonderful job with this movie. He gave the fans what they wanted to see without rolling over and catering to their every demand. 10/10 stars, perfect.
I really enjoyed this movie. This movie is worth watching.
It was AWESOME!!!! This movie moves at an almost breathtaking pace, with enough action to satisfy all. The passion of the characters was captured magnificently by the cast.
Very good. Recommend.
