Så här gör vi i Göteborg AKA This is how we do it in Gothenburg

Don\\\'t expect to ever find out the truth about what really happened in Gothenburg during those days of the EU summit in June 2001. In the Indymedia documentary \\\"This is how we do it in Gothenburg\\\", we at least get another view of the events than the one that has been dominating the corporate media. With unique footage, we are shown an account of all the people with different goals that gathered in the streets of Gothenburg. Indymedia had more than ten different camera teams amidst crowds, demonstrations and riots. With warmth, humor and sharp accuracy we are thrown between the different moods and emotions that shook Gothenburg, and possibly the whole of Sweden, during those few days in June.

The documentary is named \\\"This is how we do it in Gothenburg\\\", after a comment from a funny policeman in connection with the mass mooning against George Bush. The title is also a sarcastic remark to the utterance of police commissioner Håkan Jaldung on a press conference about the police assault against the Schillerska school, when members of the Swedish police\\\'s anti terrorist squad late at Saturday night, equipped with drawn automatic weapons, stormed a building used by young demonstrators as sleeping facilities, under threats forced them down on the wet school yard in their underwear. There the youths received both verbal and physical abuse, ranging from racist and sexist remarks, to methodical humiliation and insults. Håkan Jaldung\\\'s comment was: \\\"This was pure routine. Here in Gothenburg we do three to four operations like this every week...\\\"
