Gustaf och Maria - en kärlekshistoria

1998, Swedish. Directed by Tom Alandh.

"Killing a person, especially the one you love, is very difficult..." - that's what was written in the farewell letter that the police found in Gustaf and Maria's apartment in March 1997. In her bed, Maria was also found dead from drugs and suffocation. She was 87 years old and severely senile. In the last years, Gustaf himself had taken care of her at home because Maria was afraid of institutions and medical equipment. "....difficult, damn hard, even if you're logically and emotionally convinced that it's the best for her - and for me." The following day, Gustaf boards a Finland boat. In open water, he sinks his body into the sea with a chain wrapped around the body, "so that the corpse does not float up". That's how Gustaf and Maria died - after a whole life together,
