As the AIDS epidemic was spreading in 1987, the Swedish government commissioned Roy Andersson to make an educational film about the disease. In these twenty or so monotone scenes, Andersson criticizes the medical community for its dehumanizing and racist tendencies when researching HIV and AIDS.

Only in Sweden would they hire an absurdist filmmaker to direct an PSA about the AIDS epidemic. Surreal. What a ridiculous country.
