Kåge Jonsson - Vardagens betraktare
Overview:
Despite having made some of television's most popular documentaries, Kåge Jonsson is almost unknown. For 35 years he and Tom Alandh have been workmates and for just as long they have grumbled about what a documentary film really is. Leif Furhammar's definition reads "a piece of reality, seen through a temperament".
