In late summer 1973, amidst the impending death of the Swedish king and upcoming national elections, Sweden was thrust into a six-day crisis that gripped the nation. On August 23, a man disguised in a wig stormed into Kreditbanken at Norrmalmstorg, Stockholm, firing shots and taking hostages. His demands: money, the release of his imprisoned friend, and an escape vehicle. As millions watched, what unfolded was not just a hostage drama but the birth of a psychological phenomenon known globally today as "Stockholm Syndrome," where hostages form a bond with their captor.
