“A thriller inspired by the Swedish Security Service’s wartime activities – an original telling for the film.”

About the text

There’s a lot of evidence that this is no proper Bergman script, but rather Bergman’s adaptation of an original text by an unknown author, carried out during his time as script editor at SF. Nevertheless, the opening paragraph’s disclaimer - regarding the shortcomings of the script compared to the film - is unmistakably Bergman.

In any event, the film was never made.
