Surely this film must have been banned in at least Germany and Israel, because after the old man's "tablecloth trick" horribly fails, the removed tablecloth reveals a swastika (with the hooks going clockwise, at that) on the table? JIP | Talk 22:26, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

I think the film has only premiered internationally at film festivals (at least that's how i got to see it), and thus has not been commercially shown in most countries; hence the lack of english articles about it, and the lack of controversy, althought i dont think it'd be a problem in israel, becuase the swastika is a well constructed critique about contemporary history and it builds the character, on germany on the other hand they seem to be a bit more prejudiced against the symbol regardless of its use, but they would probably just skip the film while selecting for film festivals, instead of an outright ban
being swedish, would you happen to be able to complete the plot? a comprehensive listing of the stories would be ideal, however frugal
