Sweden 105’, 2012, black and white
Swedish with Turkish subtitles
Late in the evening on February 28th, 1986, Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme and his wife walked home from seeing a film. Palme was fatally shot and killed by an unknown assassin. The murder was never solved. Maud Nycander and Kristina Lindström’s encompassing portrait of Palme began as a means to reassess the former prime minister’s legacy, separate from the drama and horror of his death. More than 26 years have passed since Palme was assassinated, but he remains a divisive figure in Swedish society. Outspoken, courageous, and an advocate for women’s rights, environmentalism, and the peace movement, Palme almost single-handedly changed global views about Sweden. Nycander and Lindström’s film portrait offers an encompassing view both of the man and of his era with never-before-seen footage released by the Palme family.
