Stimulantia

I hope it is not against policy for me to post a link here to the 1967 Swedish anthology film Stimulantia. Most of the film comprises various fictions, but – and this is not mentioned in the EN Wikipedia article, though it is in the SV article – the first segment (0:53 – 10:23) is a documentary about Hans Abramson searching for the location of a dwelling where Chaplin once lived. I leave it to others with expertise in this area to decide whether it is useful to us in any way. Harfarhs (talk) 00:58, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
