Charles XII's Courier (Swedish: Carl XII:s kurir) is a 1924 Swedish silent historical adventure film directed by Rudolf Anthoni and starring Gösta Ekman, Renée Björling and Nils Asther.[1] It was shot at the Råsunda Studios in Stockholm. The film's sets were designed by the art director Vilhelm Bryde. It is now considered to be a lost film. It should not be confused with the 1925 film Charles XII in which Ekman also starred, appearing in the title role.
Following his defeat at Bender, Charles XII sends one of his officers carrying vital messages to Stockholm across a hostile and dangerous Europe.
