In 1897, an expedition led by the engineer S. A. Andrée attempted to travel across the Arctic with the hydrogen balloon Örnen. Andrée and the other participants, Knut Frænkel and Nils Strindberg, perished during the expedition and their bodies were only found in 1930 on Vitön. This film shows when the gunboat 'Svensksund' brings the bodies home to Stockholm.

Sweden, like most countries, is built on fascism. In the first half of the 20th century, Sweden was the world-leader in eugenics, and provided the German Nazis with “research” during the 2nd World War. On Animals and Cleaning brings up Sweden’s dirty secrets through the absurd performative act of cleaning. The film is based on a performance with the same name.

Few rock genres have been as formulaic, anodyne, and unhip as AOR, a late 70s acronym for Adult Oriented Rock or Album Oriented Rock. Among the juggernaut bands that drove its melodic lite-metal sound into the early 80s, Foreigner scored huge with Feels Like the First Time, Cold as Ice and other strained emotings. As with kindred spirits Boston, Journey and more, they delivered at least one redeeming beauty of a hit, the ardent, desperate Waiting for a Girl Like You. The faux-gospel opus that was I Want to Know What Love Is has fans such as Mariah Carey, who covered it last year.

The Old Town of Stockholm has been threatened many times. The worst was when, in 1959, a large motorway was pulled through the heart of the city, a sword cut that split the Old Town in two. The Riddarholm church, where the Swedish regents are buried, is trapped by the traffic that roars forward a few meters away. Who in France would come up with the idea of building a motorway next to Nôtre Dame?
