When this enchanting Swedish film was shown on BBC Television on February 25, it was seen by about eleven million people and found to be one of the most enjoyable programmes for many months.
For those who did not see it then, and the very many who did, and who want to see it a second time, this story of real people and the wild life around them in Central Sweden is presented again. The stars are two small sons of a farmer and their tame otter.
The film directed by Arne Sucksdorff
