Solidarity with the border people. Equal rights for the sexual deviants. Kristoffer Lohman is a young solicitor who collects stories and knowledge of different perversions. This has affected and changed his own sexual life. Sara, a young well-behaved and adorned woman, becomes interested in Kristoffer's activity.
Direction
Sjöman's clinical-meets-tender gaze—he wants to provoke AND understand.
Acting
Kjell Bergqvist's slow unravelling from detached collector to confused participant.
Writing
Dialogue that treats 'deviance' with almost academic seriousness—dated yet daring.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Vilgot Sjöman was already infamous for 'I Am Curious' (1967); this is his quieter, queerer follow-up that Swedish critics largely ignored.
Lickå Sjöman is the director's daughter—casting that adds undeniable layers to Sara's watching/watched dynamic with Kristoffer.
