Based on a series of interviews documentary film maker Anders Wahlgren made with architect Sven Markelius in 1969. Sven Markelius was one of the most radical architects in Sweden for many years. Since these interviews were the only recorded interviews made with Markelius we can get some insight into his philosophy 50 years later.

The Old Town of Stockholm has been threatened many times. The worst was when, in 1959, a large motorway was pulled through the heart of the city, a sword cut that split the Old Town in two. The Riddarholm church, where the Swedish regents are buried, is trapped by the traffic that roars forward a few meters away. Who in France would come up with the idea of building a motorway next to Nôtre Dame?
