Inspired by Le Corbusiers idea of the city as machine, and by the aesthetics of Brasil's new capital, Brasilia, a city built in only three years - out in the middle of the jungle - the planners and the politicians of Gothenburg decided to build a completely new city, for 200 000 inhabitants - out in the middle of the forest. Nothing turned out quite as they expected. A perfect new world tells the epic story of the segregated suburbs of Gothenburg through the lived experiences of a young woman, the film's main character; Sagal Hussein. Sagal is a 19-year old boxer from the Gothenburg suburb Hjällbo. And she can't imagine a better place to grow up. The film "A perfect new world" begins with Sagal's high school graduation day in 2012 and follows her as she finds her way out into adult life. On her journey, she meets with several experts in the fields of architecture and city planning, all who are middle class and all who try to explain to her, why the suburbs, her home, represent a failure.
