I'm curious (blue) , original Swedish title: Jag är nyfiken - blå , is a Swedish feature film with documentary elements in black and white. Directed by Vilgot Sjöman , who also wrote the script. In the Federal Republic of Germany, the film was released for the first time on August 9, 1968. The film is the continuation of “ I am curious (yellow) ” and was conceived at the same time as that. In the German-speaking world, the “blue” stripe was initially launched on the market under the title Sie will's know . The colors "yellow" and "blue" represent the colors in the Swedish national flag .

action

Once again, the 20-year-old Swede Lena Nyman strolls through Sweden with a microphone and tape recorder to quench her curiosity and ask about the attitudes of others. The second part is about love for three , about lesbian love, the sexual outsider, the church and the state, about single mothers , about the shortcomings in the penitentiary system and sex education and other things.

Reviews

“Like its predecessor in terms of content and style: a mixture of serious (often accurate) social and moral criticism and speculative derailments, presented with a somewhat smug public horror attitude. Sjöman's method of designing a "polemical kaleidoscope" of left and right philistine bourgeoisie from the standpoint of the young, non-conformist generation is sometimes not without attraction, but in such a concentrated form tiring. "

“The second part of Sjöman's supposedly shocking and provocative report about prejudice, taboos, sexual outsiders and Swedish society. A superficial, confusing and above all boring film, the speculative intentions of which have been tempered by the legitimate intervention of the FSK, but which must nevertheless be rejected as inadequate and tasteless.
