A Piece of My Heart (film)

A Piece of My Heart (Swedish: En del av mitt hjärta) is a Swedish jukebox musical film directed by Edward af Sillén and written by Lars "Vasa" Johansson [sv] based on music by Tomas Ledin. The title is taken from Ledin's Grammis award-winning song "En del av mitt hjärta". The lead role is played by Malin Åkerman, starring in her first Swedish film, with an ensemble cast featuring Christian Hillborg, Jonas Karlsson, Per Andersson, Shima Niavarani, Johan Ulveson, Johan Rheborg, and Marie Richardson.[1] The film was produced and filmed in Sweden by Unlimited Stories. It was released on 25 December 2019.[2] When interviewed about the film, Ledin expressed how amazed he was by the quality of the script and how happy he was to be part of something like this.[3] He also suggested that three or four of the songs are much better than his original.[4] Af Sillén described the film as an "all in-musical comedy" with a great ensemble and big, lavish shownumbers.[5]

Plot edit

The plot follows Isabella, a successful business woman in the financial district of Stockholm, who returns to her small-town home to celebrate her father's birthday, only to find her teenage crush is marrying her childhood best friend.[6] She also realises that her successful dealings in Stockholm will cause the closing of an important local industry.

Release edit

A Piece of My Heart was released on 25 December 2019 in Sweden.[7] Nordisk Film will look after the Scandinavia roll-out, with the release in Finland set for 3 January 2020.[7]

On 25 October 2019, it was announced that Björn Ulvaeus has arranged an English dub of the film.[7] He worked with Swedish songwriter Andreas Carlsson to produce English versions of Ledin's songs, recorded by the original Swedish cast.[8] In November 2019, private previews of the English version were screened for invited guests in the hope of establishing a further international release. Ledin asked Ulvaeus if he would be interested in writing English lyrics for his songs as they are long time friends.[8] The film's release in Israel, Taiwan and Poland is already confirmed.[7]
