About the event
In 2012 Sven Klang’s Kvintett was voted one of Sweden’s top 25 all-time greatest film. Sven Klang is the leader of a local jazz band from a small Swedish town whose lives are transformed with the arrival of a professional, and uncompromising, saxophonist from Stockholm. The result is superb music -all the actors are also musicians- but inevitably friction, jealousy and dissent.
“The only film about jazz musicians that tells it like it is.” - George Melly.
Swedish with English sub-titles.
Duration: 95 minutes.
