We join Dani (Florence Pugh) and Christian (Jack Reynor), a young couple amidst a rocky relationship that is about to reach its inevitable conclusion. Unfortunately, a horrific family tragedy forces the two to stay together. In a bid to save the relationship, Christian invites Dani on the trip of a lifetime with him and his friends, to the uniquely, Scandinavian, midsummer festival, in the rural Swedish town of Hårga.

After meeting the quirky locals that inhabit the festival, what initially seems like a refreshing, simplistic paradise, begins to take a dark and disturbing turn for the worst.

Unsettling, hallucinogenic, violent and unexpected, Ari Aster’s Midsommar is the 21st century’s answer to The Wicker Man (minus the bees, thank God!), get involved.
