A movie to check on how our former government (Social now) took advantage of the previous Liberal system ..And if the terrible female brothel owners (Dagmar Gloss) who took advantage of young girls into prostitution against their will.The girls was girls with problem and the government take care of and after that being used by the Hight politician and outhers really really wealthy people who don't care about outer people..Interesting story about Sweden's gruesome history and how rich people exploit vulnerable women in the past so liberal society where money is more important than the people ..Luckily both Sweden and the United States throw out the Liberal government ..

A Swedish semi adult-drama inspired by the real story of country's corruption and scandal during the time woman's liberation and the sexual revolution. It also went through controversy before hitting the screen. The story is set in the backdrop of the 1976 general election which centers around two troubled teenage girls Iris and Sonja. They are sent to live in a juvenile home, in the night time they begin to explore the city with other girls from the institution. Then they meet a woman called Dagmar who introduce them into the all new world. Like the German movie 'The Lives of Others' a young police officer named Sandberg is assigned to comb the taped phone calls, only for the formality. As he goes deeper into it becomes bigger, he cross-connects which crack loose everything to hit him back.The movie might be about prostitution but it had less nude scenes which come occasionally. That mean you should not consider it is suitable for all age group. But good for the movie fans from different category who are willing to know the true incident than witnessing sexual side of the tale. It also indicates the struggle of underage girl's without proper guidance in the society. More like the country's security system was flawed. Especially the character Iris' run away at the end tells how safe it was for women in those times.The filmmakers brought the real atmosphere of 70s. I think it was the perfect cast and their performances. Overall it was a nice movie which throws some lights on the truth about illegal activities and underage prostitution and also dragging the powerful names. Yeah, you must see this movie to know all these in picture than expecting some erotic.7/10

Swedish thriller regarding prostitutes and politicians in the Seventies, which caused quite a stir in its own country due to its suggestion that a popular prime minister of that era engaged in secret sexual hook-ups with underage girls who were forced into this sleazy business. Though in truth the movie only briefly touches upon that particular subject, it's no surprise many Swedes would take offense at the rather bleak and harsh view Call Girl offers of the political arena of the day and its subversive fascination with young female flesh, as seen through the eyes of a troubled teenage girl, locked away in a juvenile rehabilitation center. As she escapes her confinement she and her friend soon meet up with all the wrong people and are ushered into a world of glitter and power where they can have whatever they want, but for a price. Under the "care" of an unscrupulous older woman, a terrifying role by Pernilla August (once Anakin's warm and caring mum), she finds herself landing the job of underage hooker, being shipped from one dirty old powerful man to the other, seemingly with no hope of escape. Meanwhile, a political news reporter gets wind of the whole affair and means to expose it, but finds himself intimidated by the agents of the powers-that-be at every turn, until there is no way out but death or victory. Call Girl cannot be denied to be a gutsy movie, handling a sensitive topic with nerve and bravery, but there's various elements against either enjoying it as a thriller or taking its contents too seriously. For one thing, there is the excessive running time of 140 minutes, which surely could have been shorter to make for a more compelling film, since several scenes of political corruption and debauchery, heroic investigative journalism and plenty of bare boobs feel redundant. For another, the main girl the movie revolves around is a rather stupid, obnoxious and spoiled young cow, making one stupid decision after the other to predictable effects, making it hard to really care about her fate since she so obviously did everything to deserve it. Though the ice cold, wholesomely disturbing role by August and the shocking, uncompromising climax make up for it quite a bit, it's not enough to make the movie feel like its overstaying its welcome, while appearing to warn teenagers to behave and stay away from strangers a little too overtly.

I'm not sure I'm qualified to review this movie because I walked out after an hour, something I rarely do. (Usually if I'm not enjoying a film, I fall asleep.) The current IMDb rating is too high.Something went wrong with the exposition in this movie. After a while I was able to discern that the story involves a troubled and promiscuous teenager abandoned by her mother at a relaxed juvenile residence. For reasons that were unexplained in the movie, the young residents were allowed to do what they wanted, and come and go as they pleased. Of course, they all went to Stockholm, and got into trouble. (Is this realistic? What kind of state-run facility was this exactly?)At some point she blithely and stupidly got caught up in a sex network of some kind involving an older guy and then a group of older people. (Who were the men with Glans?) They got these girls drunk and had sex with them. This is pedophile rape, and a rather powerful scene, but the movie doesn't really dwell on it. The event doesn't seem to bother the girl at all.You have to give the moviegoer some reason to care about what happens. A movie should have a hero, or antihero, of some kind. I thought she was it, but I developed little sympathy for her, even though we were shown some of her back story. I understand that girls just want to have fun, and need some cash now and again, but what is in it for the moviegoer? There seemed to be no insights, no entertainment value. The rest of the plot was difficult to follow (at least for the first hour). For the life of me, I couldn't quite put the pieces together. It didn't help that the filmmaker lingered a little too long on details and activities that seemed corollary and unnecessary.From what I could gather, there was a woman (lesbian?) running an unsophisticated prostitution ring involving several different people, a few Swedish politicians (who?), including some enacting a bill to decriminalize incest (?), Polish diplomats who have sex in their offices (?), security officials, an investigator and so on. The investigator is tasked with investigating the prostitution ring; he does it by creeping up the stairs and listening through the door.The seduction and sex scenes were squalid. Almost everyone seemed to be constantly smoking. Endless shots of people sitting around, languidly smoking. For me, smoking is usually somewhat disgusting to watch; here we see gratuitous tobacco abuse in every scene. Were the Swedes such heavy smokers back then?Much of the action takes place at night, or in the rain, or indoors in rather decrepit, cheap-looking buildings. There was nothing here for the eye.I suppose this might be a movie about the horrors of ultra-liberalism in Sweden in the 1970s and moral corruption in Swedish politics at the time. If so, it wasn't (for at least the first hour of this movie) really entertaining or easy to follow. The question that arose for me was this: why should I care what happens to these people?? After two people walked out, I realised I didn't care, so I walked out as well.
