FANTASTICALLY STRONG & TERRIBLY FRAGILE
Retired judge Sofia Sapiens hasn't stopped thinking. She suffers from a professional injury in the form of a kind of obsession. With the rule of law. She sees changes and tries to understand the situation in Sweden today. How can the rule of law be kept free from ideological control? What happens when norms and boundaries shift? What kind of society are we changing into with the laws that are being rapidly passed? Sofia is dry, sharp, and absurd, and you can't help but like her. She carries the law book around in a worn shopping bag, asks questions, and is in contact with various knowledgeable people: lawyers, political scientists, journalists, and others. It's as if they hear her thoughts and questions and respond to her, then give their perspectives on the questions and topics.
A lecture performance with reflections, film clips, and music.
By and with Karin Wegsjö. The film also features lawyers, researchers, political scientists, a former Chancellor of Justice, criminologists, and others.
