A feisty five-year-old girl Lotta decides to move away from home. And no, she doesn't want to put on the stupid sweater.
Why I love Lotta:
Spoiler:
Lotta is a stubborn little egoist prone to grumpy and noisy outbursts when things do not go her way ... particularly when she is wakened suddenly from a bad dream. Her family and neighbors are incredibly tolerant and patient. Whether her mood is good or bad, I think she is hilarious!
However ... when she sees that other people are sad or upset, she watches them quietly and thinks. Her heart melts, and she decides to DO something about it to make them feel better. Aww...

About Teddy Bears and Easter witches:
Spoiler:
A "bamse" is a bear, specifically one that is a soft stuffed toy for young chidren. In English this is a "teddy bear". Lotta's bamse is named Bamsen, and it is actually a cute piggy. I kept his Swedish name in the subtitle translation.
I had never heard of Swedish children dressing up as "Easter witches" until I saw this movie.
In Sweden and Finland, it is an Easter tradition for children to dress as witches, old women and old men and go door to door for treats similar to the trick-or-treating tradition of Halloween on Maundy Thursday or the day before Easter (Holy Saturday).
Lotta and her siblings dress up as Easter witches and go out for candy, with plans to have an Easter egg hunt on the later day.
