Those in Power



Modern Swedish Politics
This series is in six parts, each 90 minutes, based on a best-selling trilogy about the Social-Democrats and their attempts to stay in power. The acting is excellent, with Swedish dialogue and English subtitles. In Sweden as in the U.S., politics ain't beanbags.

Fascinating Swedish political drama
Pamzbookz sold this 3 DVD set used at a very fair price, and it arrived and - most importantly - played in excellent condition.

"Those in Power" - a political drama about the rise of an environmental activist to become a government Minister - is another Svensk Filmindustri (SF) winner in the crime drama traditions of "Martin Beck" and "Wallender." Very gritty and disturbing at times, but feels absolutely believable. One of the best offerings on MHZ Networks in the U.S. in the last few years. Highly recommended

Well Done!
Although not as well constructed as "Borgen", it's almost as good and keeps one's interest piqued until the end. I certainly recommend it.
