Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Sweden has seen a surge in citizens preparing for war, blackouts, and cyberattacks. Robin, a father in Stockholm, keeps weeks of supplies on hand and takes his children into the forest for survival training, treating self-sufficiency as a family skill rather than a hobby. Pär Plüschke, 38, runs prepping courses that were once a niche interest and now can barely keep up with demand from Swedes across every social class, some learning to shoot, others learning to purify water or ration food. The film traces this shift back to Russia's 2014 annexation of Crimea, Sweden's 2017 reintroduction of compulsory military service, and its recent break from decades of military non-alignment to seek NATO membership. Interviews with preppers, instructors, and footage of survival drills in Swedish forests show a country recalibrating its sense of safety, where stocking a pantry and learning to build a fire are framed as civic duty as much as personal insurance.
