The film depicts Sudan and how international oil companies operate in the southern parts of the country. Wechselmann connects this with Swedish private savers' general ignorance of which funds have shares in the oil companies.

Ewa Rudling, Anita Bondestam
Ewa Rudling's career as a photographer got an explosive start. She was in Paris when the student revolt began in May 1968. Ewa borrowed a camera and the pictures she took at the barricades at the Sorbonne University ended up in British The Observer. Physical and psychological abuse was part of young Ewa Rudling's everyday life. She had to take care of the little sister, but never felt any support from her mother. At the age of 19, Ewa too off for Rome. Her Nordic looks and appearance made her a model. Later she moved to New York and on the skating rink in Central Park, she met her prospective husband, Claude Duthuit, daughter's son to the artist Henri Matisse.

As an unwavering natural force, Maj Wechselmann produces at least one film a year, which is guaranteed to show troublesome connections between established power structures and maladjustments for people further down the hierarchy of society; this time through the Swedish Television photographer Claes-Göran Bjernér's fascinating fate of life. Bjernér, who reported from 23 wars in 83 countries, had his lungs injured for life in the poison gas disaster in Bhopal, India in 1984. The film begins with him almost dying several times, but miraculously returning to life. In interviews and archival photos, he shares his unique first-hand experiences of war, violence and corruption. A glowing agitation to never stop demanding responsibility for the world's tragedies.
