The art of film came to Sweden after the European colonization of large parts of the world, at the height of racial thinking and at a time of mass emigration from Europe to America. This book explains how this impacted on Swedish film and how filmmaking was introduced into the country by entrepreneurs from other countries. Film became the most popular form of entertainment, but what kind of images of other ethnic groups were created? This is the first book that analyses how ethnic minorities and people from other countries were portrayed in Swedish film between 1890-1950 and its consequences. The analysis is presented against the backdrop of developments within the Swedish society, world events like the Second World War and how ethnic minorities were treated in the country. An explanation is given to how prejudice presented on the screen affects us biologically. The medium of film can change how we perceive ourselves and others. It is up to us to manage that possibility to the benefit of all.

<p><b>Instant New York Times bestseller </b></p><p><b>The long-awaited first work of nonfiction from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino.</b></p><p>In addition to being among the most celebrated of contemporary filmmakers, Quentin Tarantino is possibly the most joyously infectious movie lover alive. For years he has touted in interviews his eventual turn to writing books about films. Now, with Cinema Speculation, the time has come, and the results are everything his passionate fans--and all movie lovers--could have hoped for. Organized around key American films from the 1970s, all of which he first saw as a young moviegoer at the time, this book is as intellectually rigorous and insightful as it is rollicking and entertaining. At once film criticism, film theory, a feat of reporting, and wonderful personal history, it is all written in the singular voice recognizable immediately as QT's and with the rare perspective about cinema possible only from one of the greatest practitioners of the artform ever.</p>

This collection of photographs from the island Gotland in the Baltic Sea is an effort to take pictures that not necessarily are beautiful.The pictures in this collection were the result of an attempt to catch the spirit of Gotland but leaving out all the sunsets, sunrises, the rauks and the lambs. I approached Gotland in the summer of 2016 like it was any street or any town that I was visiting, grabbing every opportunity to snap an image.

A photograph is often accompanied by a caption. If it is so that the imagery is a means of communication on its own, it seems absolutely superfluous to enclose captions. Different processes seem to be behind this general effort of densification of images. This book presents some images, postcards, as I like to think about them. And there are no captions.
