synopsis
Brott I Sol (Crime in the Sun) was adapted from the long-running stage thriller by Staffan Tjerneld. The story concerns six diverse characters, united by romance during a Summer vacation. Murder rears its ugly head when both Raoul (Curt Masrellez) and Richard (Ulf Palme) fall in love with Eva (Margareta Brostrom). Who "done it"? Doggedly faithful to the original play, Brott I Sol still manages throughout to be thoroughly "cinematic," thanks to the deft touch of director Goran Gentele.
