Swedish Prime Minister was assassinated on an open street in Stockholm on February 28th 1986. This Video shows the mourning crowd of people gathered at the exact muder place with huge pile of flowers, the funeral procession alongside Stadshusbron, the grave in the churchyard of Adolf Fredrik's Church, and finally people at the murder place and the grave 25 years later, February 28th 2011.
The original video is filmed with VHSC-camera of its earliest type, hence the image quality is very poor.
This video is a revised version of "Olof Palme's Funeral - 1986 (Stereo)" which can be found at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3653AEu6_0
Some parts of the sound track are featured with "Närvaro", a piano improvisation performed by Ragnhild Mao, May 2010.
The funeral took place 1986-03-15
