Where film meets reality
The way we look at movies is not real. It sounds boring. So we make it a reality! At Ystad Studios, you take the step straight into scenes picked from worlds, lives and situations that you would never otherwise have a chance to experience - than via the film's enchanting universe.
Ystad
Since the success of the Wallander films in the early 2000s, the city of Ystad got known as one of the best Swedish cities for film tourism. Walking through the narrow streets, you can find and enjoy the classic Wallander cakes made by the local bakeries while trying to spot all the locations of the films. Walk a little further to the old military base, and you will find the Ystad Studios Visitor Center, where you can step into Wallander's office, as well as many other classic sets from Swedish film and tv.

Hålla Samman
"HÅLLA SAMMAN" is a Swedish TV dramedy following the contrasting lives of sisters Lina and Petra and their families in Ystad. Lina, with a big heart but impulsive nature, and Petra, the responsible older sister who carries the weight of everything and everyone. Despite their differences, they excel at resolving conflicts swiftly. Their father Kenneth, a tough yet loving man, runs a car workshop and shares his life with his loyal companion, Heaven the dog. When Kenneth is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, the sisters' lives are disrupted. Emotions fluctuate between sadness, anger, resilience, and laughter. They must take action, but Lina and Petra strongly disagree on the course of action. Amidst it all, they realize the importance of seizing the present moment.
