Den enskilde medborgaren

Allowed 100 minutes • 2004 • 6.1

In Den enskilda medborgaren, Galenskaparna and After Shave deliver sharp satire inspired by the Skandia scandal. The film is about the insurance company ODEN, where CEO Stig Roxby, by his own initiative, has raised the bonus ceiling, thus costing the company around SEK 4 billion. Also he decided that all directors would receive several hundred million kronor in bonuses in addition to the hundred million kronor they already had. This upsets both the media and the Swedish people. Some of the directors are thinking of paying back a portion of the money to make up for their mistake, but Stig Roxby wants to get out of the situation while maintaining both the job and all the money because he believes he has not done anything wrong.
