Emil Benedict Zilliacus (11 January 1921 – 28 January 2013) was a Swedish-speaking Finnish journalist, author, scriptwriter and translator.[1]
Zilliacus was born in Helsinki, Finland. He wrote screenplays for many movies, including Etulinjan edessä (Beyond the Front Line), which he wrote together with Stefan Forss.
