Lilla Jönssonligan

Lilla Jönssonligan (English: The Little Jönsson gang) is a Swedish film series that consists of four movies. The film series is a spin-off of the original Jönssonligan film series, featuring the main characters as kids instead of adults. Unlike the "adult Jönssonligan", where the gang where bumbling anti-heroes, the "litte Jönssonligan" is often straight up heroic.
