Harald Edelstam. The name doesn't mean much to most Danes, but for hundreds of people he was another Wallenberg or Schindler. He was given the nickname The Black Pimpernel by Norwegian resistance fighters, when he helped them in their struggle against the Nazis in World War II. But it was in Chile, after the military coup on 11 September 1973, that he achieved lasting fame. Ignoring all instructions, he opened up the Swedish embassy to refugees. And he saved the beleaguered employees at the Cuban embassy by hoisting the Swedish flag on their building. Without any regard for his own life, he confronted general Pinochet's bloody coup head on. The veteran filmmaker Ulf Hultberg (The Daughter of the Puma) has directed the film, which stars Michael Nyqvist (As It Is in Heaven) in the powerful title role. The film is a moving and tough story about a man, who took big risks to save other people, but who couldn't control his own life.
The film is introduced by the journalist Paula Larraine. Afterwards people from the crew will answer questions from the audience. Jameson will provide a drink before the screening.
