Hjortkvarn the middle of sweden

2007-06-15

Hjortkvarn is a small town in the very demographic middle of Sweden. A miniature Sweden, the way many remeber the country of their childhood. A Sweden that does not really exist anymore but is still here. Time seems to move a little slower, things seem simpler and life seems to be comfortably disconnected from the troubles of the big world. There´s the general store, a throwback to times before supermarkets an convenience stores, and every other component necessary to create a picture of a place long gone - but still here today.
