When Darkness Falls
"A film with atmosphere and condensed mystery."
Young Elisabeth comes to Västlinge to meet her old relative, the vicar and and his young daughter.

Police inspector Christer Wijk comes to the small village to find the murderer. He soon discovers the puzzle of evidence that makes almost everybody a suspect.
