Synopsis
ENGLISH
Childhood friends MyNa and Farah form the artistic duo Mahoyo. Through their art, they explore questions of identity and belonging within the highly segregated Swedish society. As we follow their journey, we get closer into the growth of far-right movements in Sweden, but also into the uprising of a generation of young Swedes creating political change.
SVENSKA
Barndomsvännerna MyNa och Farah utgör den konstnärliga duon Mahoyo. Genom sin konst utforskar de frågor om identitet och tillhörighet i det starkt segregerade svenska samhället. När vi följer deras resa kommer vi närmare både framväxten av högerextrema rörelser i Sverige och mobiliseringen av en generation unga svenskar som skapar politisk förändring.
