Despite Ola S. Svensson’s uncontrollable laughter, huge body and habit for digressing into long, detailed accounts of obscure fractions of knowledge, he was predicted a bright future within the Social Democratic party. His sudden sickness and death from AIDS coincides with the death of politics as an expression of intention and will, and as a force for social imagination. Ola S. Svensson’s time in politics was a transitory period, to a phase that has been called the era of post-politics. With a few props, a few images and minimal action, the tragic biography of Ola S. Svensson is told.
