The year is 1959. A young boy, Ingemar (Anton Glanzelius), is obsessed by two things - his namesake fighting for the World Heavyweight boxing title and the fate of Laika, the dog sent in to space by Russia.
As his mother's health deteriorates and she no longer has the strength to cope with him, Ingemar is sent to stay with relatives in the country, much like Laika's journey into the unknown. Dealing with feelings of innocence, love and abandonment, this magical film, directed by Lasse Hallstrom (Cider House Rules, Chocolat, What's Eating Gilbert Grape), is both hilarious and deeply moving.
