This year's honorary gold beetle, which is awarded for long and faithful service, went to Sten Ljunggren.

Most recently, he appeared on the white screen in the film Border and he was in last year's Christmas calendar Mirakel.

- I feel very proud and honored and happy.

But I do not think I have contributed that much in Swedish film, says Ljunggren via a video greeting.

The actor also took the opportunity to curse the corona and read a piece from a Harry Martins song.
