Ep 101 – The Swedish Connection – Can Paperwork Save Lives in WWII?
In this episode of Rosie the Reviewer, we discuss recent Netflix hit The Swedish Connection (2026), based on the true story of Swedish diplomat Gösta Engzell, who helped rescue Jewish people during World War II using the power of paperwork.
We also dive down the rabbit hole of a much smaller character in the film, but a real badass dude in real life: Raoul Wallenberg. (Can someone please make a movie about him, thanks?)
