The Guitar Mongoloid (Swedish: Gitarrmongot) is a 2004 Swedish drama film directed by Ruben Östlund, about different people living outside the norms in the fictional city Jöteborg, strikingly similar to real-life Göteborg. Although not a documentary, most of the people seen in the film are non-actors more or less playing themselves.

Reception
The film was met by mixed but overall positive reviews, with a rating of 3.6 out of 5 based on eight reviews at the Swedish-language review aggregator website Kritiker.se.[1] Carl-Johan Malmberg at Svenska Dagbladet gave it 5 out of 6 and called it "a series of sabotages: against our expectations, against good taste, as well as against the boredom of the normal Swedish film with its moderately thoughtful, moderately funny, moderately empathetic, and quickly forgotten stories."[2] Jens Peterson at Aftonbladet was less enthusiastic and rated the film 2 out of 5, summarising it as "Jackass without heart, Candid Camera without humour."[3] The film was honored with the FIPRESCI Award at the 27th Moscow International Film Festival.[4][5]
