Watch 'Jean-Claude' (the 2002 documentary about a homeless Frenchman,which Stina wrote the music for) online!
Go to http://svt.se/svt/jsp/Crosslink.jsp?d=8 ... ff_1227922,click on 'Se filmen!'.
In the pop-up screen which appears,there is a dialogue box:-
'Jag har följande spelare installerade
Windows Media Player (version 9 eller högre)
RealPlayer'
Check the box for whichever one you have installed,then click 'Spara Intallningar',and after a couple of adverts for about 2 minutes,the 40-minute documentary will start.

Some of Stina's finest work,IMO,tailor-made for this documentary,which is worth watching on any count,even if you can't follow French or Swedish!!
BTW if anyone can provide a translation,I for one would be eternally grateful.I can understand French but not at this speed...

Apparently it was broadcast on STV again two days ago-by some bizarre coincidence I was watching my DVD of it (for the first time in ages) at the same time Which is what led me to looking up info on Google and finding the link.

thank you for the link !

Alex it would be great if you (or Franck or Elfy) could provide a translation or a rough synopsis-eg-why does he visit his mother (?); does he die at the end? what is the dialogue with the older woman in the metro(?) (I remember some of it from Véronique's masthead of J-C at CQD long ago) etc etc.

i quickly watched, found no reason about visiting her mum.
about the old woman in the metro, he asked her "what do you think about France?"
and she replied some hippie stuffs like "life is beautiful, we should all love each others, to be nice between countries..."

and yes, he's dead like the guy said at the end
