If till now Sweden had an impressive effect on you with all its richness in art and literature then after going deeper into this country’s internal affairs and social system, you will be afraid of it. Yes, Sweden carries a very darker side of exploiting women and child trafficking. the brutality of the Swedish society and the fall of morality of this country gets very depicted in the first book in Larsson’s trilogy which has now been adopted as the story of a movie, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. This movie has recently released in Britain and since its release is experiencing huge response and already 2.5 million of Europeans have watched it. The Hollywood remake of this movie too is on the cards and Scott Rudin is determined to go for it.
This movie shows how cruel and merciless the Swedish society is and how rudely they handle women. This movie though first starts as a detective movie but as soon as the story unfolds and the movie portrays something which is beyond the imagination of anyone. The way women is being treated, the way they are suppressed and the way their life is used for lust and pleasure reflects a black impression of the entire system of Sweden. It is for the depiction such a brutal thought process of the Swedish society only that the original Swedish name of this book is Men Who Hate Women. It is mostly the social scene of the Nineties that has been elaborated in this book.
The story of the movie revolves round the family history and the hidden secrets of an industrialist family of Vanger. The journalist in the story Mikael Blomkvist and his lady companion Lisbeth Salander at a point of time meets each other and gets united to know more about the family and that effort results in discovering something very violent and something very disturbing that is linked to the family since four long decades.
