Synopsis:
Seven-year-old Bertil is a happy young chap. But there are two things missing in his life: the ability to whistle and a grandpa. Together with his friend Ulf they find 'Grandpa Nils': - he may be a little unsure about how to be a grandfather and he may be too tired to go fishing, but he is full of wonderful stories and he sure can whistle ...
Comments:
This delightful film follows the development of a relationship between a seven year-old boy and a lonely man. Big on laugh but not without a few touching moments.
