It's not quite like Northern Europe, but Eastern Europe has a stronger flavor. The movie is composed of many pale, numb, and monotonous long-range shots, like an absurd and funny stage play. Beloved be the ones who sit down, this poem is mentioned repeatedly in the film, but unfortunately I didn't find the source~

Long takes with elements that come and go slowly, with rhythm and eerie effect like a long-simmering symphony. How much worry about the society has been suffocated, and all of them have been scolded. The narrative and characters and elements of the world are exquisitely refined. Poets in asylums; breeding in golf clubs; children killed after rigorous testing; magic no longer working; pursuits of the past. The last scene was strong. Equally strong should happen to poets, magicians, and Jesus.

Songs from the Second Floor quotes
-
Kalle: What can I say? It's not easy being human.
-
The speechwriter: My approach was a rather philosophical one. About being human year after year. This is how I see it. Life is time, and time is a stretch of road. That makes life a journey, a trip. Don't you think so?
Stefan: Yes. I guess you could look at it that way.
The speechwriter: Yet in order to travel you need a map and a compass. Otherwise you wouldn't know where you were. Would you?
Stefan: No.
The speechwriter: And our map and compass are our traditions. Our heritage, our history. Aren't they?
Stefan: Yeah, sure.
The speechwriter: If we don't understand this... Before we know it, we're fumbling around in the dark. Where are we?
