Synopsis
Riddarholm Church stands near the center of Stockholm's Old Town, overshadowed by a busy motorway built in 1959. This construction split the historic area in two and trapped the church, where Swedish regents are buried, amid constant traffic. The film questions the decision-making behind placing a major road so close to significant cultural landmarks, comparing it to a hypothetical motorway near Notre Dame in France.
