Documentary films have in recent years achieved unprecedented glory and success in the United States. Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" not only was named best picture at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival, but also made big bucks at the box office. "Bowling for Columbine" attracted a large audience to theatres nationwide, and crystallized a lively debate about violence in schools. Similarly, the documentary "Super Size Me" was yet another U.S. documentary that became a global hit: That orgy of on-screen gluttony even gave the world's largest fast-food chain, McDonalds, a severe case of PR-indigestion.

A group of six-story apartment buildings, made primarily of wood, will be constructed this year in Sundsvall's inner harbor area. The project, designed by Susanne Åström of Umeå-based White Arkitekter AB, consists of five wooden apartment buildings.
