Stockholmsnatt

Stockholmsnatt (English: Stockholm Night or The King of Kungsan) is a Swedish drama film which was released to cinemas in Sweden on 23 January 1987,[1] directed by Staffan Hildebrand.

The film was financed by Televerket as part of their Stoppa sabbet campaign against payphone vandalism.

[2] The film is loosely based on a true story about Paolo Roberto, later a professional boxer and TV presenter.

The film was shown amongst students during the late 1980s in order to prevent future violence between rival gangs.

However, the film had an opposite effect on the youth who identified with Roberto, and became influential on the violent "kickers" subculture.

The film is based on the early life of Swedish boxer Paolo Roberto .
