| This story is based on a true incident: the murder of a young (20) racist in a Stockholm suburb by a group of very young (15-18) Latino boys during the Stockholm Water Festival. The story was found by Leon Flamholc while doing research for a documentary. The material made a strong impression and Leon wrote the script very much inspired by reading the police-files from the interrogations. In the style of a dramatically executed docu-drama we follow the police interrogation starting on the morning after the night the murder was committed. Three story-lines are interwoven with each other - each having a distinct cinematic style to distinguish them from each other. The interrogations in dark high contrast yellow and black. The bus-ride from the moment that the youngsters get on it and find their antagonist alone and drunk, sleeping in his seat - in black & white, and finally a straight rough, but colorful portrait of the lives of each of the groups of people whose ongoing confrontation results in the killing at the end. |
