Another hidden unknown gem from Sweden that we hadn't heard of in 20 years of FLM.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090221/
Lisa is a little girl looked after by Dr. Flower, since he believes that the Mona Lisa's mother, who runs a laundry, is not a good and orderly mother.

:onfire I am VERY excited about more vintage Swedish films! Thank you!

I don't see the Mona Lisa resemblance, however. (?)

I don't know where IMDB got this from...

The girl is Lisa, her mom's name is Mona.

The funny part of this film is the stepmom. She's played by a man.

OHHHHHH! "Mona, Lisa's mother" That crazy IMDB.

Julia Hede-Wilkens who plays mother Mona is probably best known here as the young girl in "Den vita stenen" (1973).

Nice find! For me it seems to be similar genre as [REL] Der Lügner (1961)

Hmm I wouldn't compare these two films. But in general the genre is a bit similar.
