    [synopsis] => The definitive account of the bizarre hostage drama that gave rise to the term Stockholm Syndrome. On the morning of August 23, 1973, a man wearing a wig, makeup, and a pair of sunglasses walked into the main branch of Sveriges Kreditbank, a prominent bank in central Stockholm. He ripped out a submachine gun, fired it into the ceiling, and shouted, The party starts! This was the beginning of a six-day hostage crisis - and media circus -that would mesmerize the country, drawing into its grip everyone from Sweden’s most notorious outlaw to the prime minister. By the end, the police and press alike would have a new way to understand the complicated emotional relationship between captor and captive. Based on a wealth of previously unavailable sources, including rare film footage, and unprecedented access to the main participants, Six Days in August is a groundbreaking work of nonfiction - a rich human drama of loyalty and betrayal, obedience and defiance, fear and attraction.
