    • Per Oscarsson's directorial debut about a lonely man who quits his factory job to truly "live life" for the first time. It becomes a tragicomic, absurdist odyssey through Stockholm's underbelly as Ebon encounters demonstrations, bars, churches, and society's outcasts while searching for genuine human connection.
      Oscarsson creates a Christ-like figure whose attempts at compassion — helping drunks, defending the vulnerable, seeking love — are consistently misunderstood by an indifferent urban landscape.
