A Crime (Swedish: Ett brott) is a 1940 Swedish crime drama film directed by Anders Henrikson and starring Edvin Adolphson, Karin Ekelund and Carl Barcklind.[1] It was shot at the Centrumateljéerna Studios in Stockholm and on location in the city. The film's sets were designed by the art director Arthur Spjuth. It was adapted from a 1933 play of the same title by Sigfrid Siwertz, itself inspired by the real-life Von Sydow murders case.
