"438 dagar" é um filme sueco de drama que conta a história de dois jornalistas locais, Martin Schibbye e Johan Persson, que colocaram suas vidas em risco ao cruzar ilegalmente a fronteira da Somália para a Etiópia.

O mais interessante é que essa é uma história real e o filme consegue abordar a intensidade da experiência que os dois jornalistas aram, além de criar reflexões sobre a liberdade de expressão, senso de justiça e busca da verdade com um senso de humor sutil que equilibra o filme e facilmente cativa seus espectadores.
