Wonderful short from Andersson, in line with his feature films.

Indeed, Roy Andersson's calling card: fixed camera, short scenes and the person who asks questions through the daily or traditional hassle. Witnessing the latter are almost all actors who turn around and look straight into the camera with doubt in their eyes.

Quite nice as an Andersson logo. To really enjoy this video is something else...

Wow, the opening scene is quite intense. If that was the opening line of the short, it would have come in. It's a shame that there is hardly any further embroidery on this. Well, the main character may be troubled - I suspect that would have been the case before that event.

Not much humor here. Rather dejected. A camera angle (steadfast) that keeps recurring and characters looking into the lens. Andersson's hand is present. Strong acting from Klas-Gösta Olsson. A character who loses himself in his own rut and less than sparkling life.
