As a short, this is great. A glimpse of an everyday event in Sweden. Youngsters passing a high bridge, when one of them stupidly wants to jump off.
The film has the camera placed solid a few places, while the acting seems like one-takes. Good acting all over, though some of the dialog is difficult to comprehend if you're not a native Swede.
The film was a pre study for the later film "De ofrivilliga" by the same director. This was even to be included and prolonged, but since this short got so much attention, it was cut from the feature film plan.
