The movie

This is probably the first "Scandinoir" film. I love it because it's so sparse and real but still very tense. It was made by Swedish master Bo Widerberg in 1976. With nearly no music and little sound design, but when the music comes in it's really cool - listen to the breathy, rythmic flute played by the composer Björn J:son Lindh !
