Big Lasse of Delsbo (Swedish: Lång-Lasse i Delsbo) is a 1949 Swedish historical drama film directed by Ivar Johansson and starring Sten Lindgren, Anna Lindahl and Ulla Andreasson.[1] It was shot at the Centrumateljéerna Studios in Stockholm. The film's sets were designed by the art director P.A. Lundgren. It was inspired by real historical events in nineteenth century Sweden.[2]
In Delsbo in the 1840s, the new preacher Lars Landgren (known to his parishioners as Big Lasse) tries to battle moral decline in the area after being called in by concerned locals.
