Grisjakten

Grisjakten (English: "The Pig Hunt"; "gris" = "pig", "jakt" = "hunt") is a 1970 Swedish film, made by Jonas Cornell after a 1968 novel by P. C. Jersild starring Hans Alfredsson and Keve Hjelm The film's genre is difficult to classify, it's an absurdly told story on an absurd matter. It's presumably best described as a non comedy satire. A dry and serious encounter with the Swedish bureaucracy and democracy as of Sweden around 1970. The question "Is everything decided by a parliamentary majority the same as democracy ?" (including absurd issues and potentially, in the longer run, pure madness or evilness) is fundamental to this film.
