Playing with Fire
Leka med elden
Synopsis
Actor and director Ulf Friberg has filmed August Strindberg's play "Leka med elden". Or at least almost. The story of a middle-aged couple and their summer guests slides almost unnoticed into the story of the relationship between the actors and the director. The result is an airy, summery metafilm of both classic and innovative cuts.
