Part of

Four small films

Four Small Films is a series of TV movies in four parts produced by Killinggänget, which aired in the spring of 1999. The black humor expressed in these films can be seen as a transition from the lighthearted tone of NileCity 105.6 and Percy Tårar to the gravely serious tone of Four Shades of Brown. Of the four films, only Torsk på Tallinn has been released for purchase. The others were never released due to music rights. SVT (as of 2022) airs all the films on SVT Play except for Gunnar Rehlin - a short film about harming someone since they lack the rights to show it.
