This Is Not Sweden[1] (Catalan: Això no és Suècia) is a Spanish–Swedish comedy-drama television series created by Aina Clotet, Valentina Viso, and Dani González from an original idea by Clotet and Sergi Cameron.[2]

Plot

Mariana and Samuel go to live in Vallvidrera, a mountain neighbourhood in Barcelona, to raise their children in a more authentic place, far from their respective painful childhoods. There they find a community of people with the same aspirations. But when a tragedy shakes the neighbourhood, they dismantle their ideal, the couple's certainties begin to waver and fear settles in, coming dangerously close to everything they were trying to run away from.[3]
