Plot

A late drama.

Sinekatalog’s take

Alf Sjöberg's late drama presents characters in conflict on an isolated stage, with his usual care for theatre and image. Measured and literate, it is a quiet, somewhat remote work from the veteran Swedish director.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
