Synopsis
Sixten Jernberg was one of Sweden’s most beloved athletes of all time, one of the greatest of the Olympic’s history. Between 1956 and 1964 he was the world’s best skier. He died in the summer of 2012, when he was 83 years old. During his last year, Sixten let the filmmaker Jens Lind into his life. Their meetings led to the movie “Sixten”, a programme that has been appreciated by both audience and critics.
