The
King of Danvikstull
a film by Cesar Galindo
------
Cosimo, a young
musician, leaves his home after a broken love affair.
He isolates himself from the rest of the world . As
a sign of his sorrow he is always wearing sun-glasses.
The only way he communicates is by his tape-recorder,
microphone and head-phones.
-------
He installs himself
under the Bridge of Danvikstull. The bridge fascinates
him and makes him think of Maria, his disappeared love,
who reappears in his dreams. He starts componing a symphony
to the bridge, to Maria.
But the arrival of Cosimo irritates Tompa, the bridge-guard.
He is used to have the control of the traffic over
and under the bridge. In his position he feels now
threatened...
-------
¨The King of
Danvikstull¨ could be called a punk-opera. It´s
characterized by a reduced dialogue. Instead the images,
the music and special sound-track tell the story of a
young mans´ passion and pain.
