Overview

World famous tenor Jussi Bjorling never let success go to his head. He preferred sitting on a bridge with a fishing rod in his hand. Despite his enormous success, in many ways he remained a shy boy. He sacrificed his health and maybe even his life for the sake of the music. This definitive film biography includes testimony by Jussi's children Anders, Lars, Ann-Charlotte (with much attention to their time together at Siar") and his cousin Marta; former co-stars Kerstin Meyer, Kjerstin Dellert, Aase Nordmo-Lovberg; experts like Stefan Johansson and Herald Henrysson. Directed by Torbjorn Lindqvist; Written By Torbjorn Lindqvist and Christer Eklund.
