90 Minutes of the 90's
(90 minuter 90-tal)

Screening on Film
Directed by Ten Swedish filmmakers.
Sweden, 2000, 35mm, color, 110 min.
Swedish with English subtitles.

This unusual omnibus feature was initiated by the Gothenburg Film Festival a decade ago to chronicle not only the changing face of Sweden but also the work of important emerging figures within Swedish cinema. While the resulting film failed to stay within its stated temporal limits (ninety minutes), it succeeds in presenting a vivid time capsule of the culture as well as a set of provocative approaches to the medium. Highlights include Roy Andersson's opening segment "World of Glory," actress-turned filmmaker Gunnel Lindblom's "Reflection," émigré director Reza Parsa's "The 8th Song," and Daniel Alfredson's concluding "10:10."
