Per Lindberg, 1923, from Elin Wägner's novel about women clerks in Stockholm. The Norrtull gang shares rooms and wages: Tora Teje is the one the camera stays with as pay, men, and a sick friend crowd the week. Wägner had already written the office as a political fact. Lindberg, from the theatre, keeps the film in kitchens and the typing pool. SFI circulates it as a gold-age comedy that is also a labor picture. The title is an address, not a joke.
In one programme
A labor picture that thinks it is a comedy. Four women clerks split rent and wages in Stockholm, and Lindberg keeps the camera in the kitchen and the typing pool. Tora Teje is the one to watch. The realism here is a pay envelope.
