Hasse Ekman's Best

HASSE EKMAN'S TWO MAIN FILMS – NOW DIGITALLY RESTORED!

Up for little Märta... HASSE'S BIGGEST AUDIENCE SUCCESS! One of Sweden's 20 biggest successes. 1.4 million cinemagoers.

Long before Tootsie, everyone laughed at Fram för lilla Märta, which with 1.4 million cinemagoers is one of the 20 biggest Swedish film successes in history. Experience Stig Järrel in his iconic role as the unemployed musician Sture who dresses up as a woman to get a job as a violinist in a women's trio. In his new guise, he soon discovers how women are ignored in society, which is the starting point for a ruckus that leads straight into the male-dominated halls of the Riksdag. Women's struggle has never been more fun!

Girl and Hyacinths... HASSE'S BIGGEST CRITICAL SUCCESS. Named by critics as one of the ten best Swedish films of all time.

Girl and Hyacinths is not only considered Hasse Ekman's greatest work. In the magazine FLM's acclaimed 2012 poll, Sweden's top 50 critics voted the film one of the ten best Swedish films in history. When Dagmar Brink (Eva Henning) returns home after a fateful party, she has only minutes left to live. The next day, she is found hanging from a noose with a suicide note next to her. The author Anders Wikner (Ulf Palme) quickly becomes absorbed in the fate of his enigmatic neighbor. What or who made her want to end her life?
