When her son seems to be involved in a violent incident, a preschool teacher must choose between her professional duty or protecting him.
About the film
God Mor is a Swedish short thriller written and directed by Alessandro Stigliano. A preschool teacher suspects her own son is involved in a violent incident and is forced to choose between her professional duty and her instinct to protect him. Shot in Skåne, the film was selected for Göteborg Film Festival 2026 and premiered on SVT Play.
Direction
Stigliano directs God Mor as a tight, observational moral drama. The camera stays close to the mother, letting silence, glances and everyday preschool routines build the tension instead of explanation.
Collaboration
Produced by Yxfilm together with SVT and Film i Skåne, with support from the Swedish Film Institute, the Swedish Arts Grants Committee, Boost HBG and Filmcentrum Syd. Cinematography by Oscar Asplind.
