Full Biography
Marina Lindahl, born Marilyn Jordan, is an American actress who lived in Stockholm with her Swedish husband and family. Her behavior was eccentric; she engaged in bizarre activities such as poisoning her dog's milk and setting fire to sheets while her husband slept. She also crawled under the dining table to sing. While detained at airport customs carrying pruning shears, she met a young Yugoslav woman and traveled with her to a Gypsy enclave where she had affairs and assisted in sordid entertainment at a bar. Upon returning home, Lindahl was more unpredictable than before. Additionally, the film depicted parallel stories of Lindahl's daughter becoming a junior homemaker while a young immigrant practiced striptease.
