Millennium: The Story
Millennium: The Story
The Millennium Trilogy by Swedish author Stieg Larsson is the foremost literary phenomenon of the last decade, with 15 million books sold worldwide, 25 translations in over 40 countries and a series of movies that is shattering European box office records. Just as fascinating is the story behind the books, which this documentary explores. Larsson died from a sudden heart attack at age 50 after he had completed the trilogy but before his first book was published, leading to a fight over his fortune. MILLENNIUM: THE STORY features interviews with Larsson’s friends and relatives, who reflect on how he overcame a tough childhood, and colleagues, who talk about his bravery as a journalist/activist deeply invested in cherished causes: defending democracy and fighting violence against women, racism and threats against journalists. Also interviewed are the actors who play the heroes of his novels, Elisabeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist.
