Description

CRIES AND WHISPERS Viskningar och rop

When a woman dying of cancer in early twentieth-century Sweden is visited by her two sisters, longrepressed feelings between the siblings rise to the surface.

This existential wail of a drama concerns two sisters, Karin (Ingrid Thulin) and Maria (Liv Ullmann), keeping vigil for a third, Agnes (Harriet Andersson), who is dying of cancer and can find solace only in the arms of a beatific servant (Kari Sylwan). An intensely felt film that is one of Bergman’s most striking formal experiments, Cries and Whispers (which won an Oscar for the extraordinary color photography by Sven Nykvist) is a powerful depiction of human behavior in the face of death, positioned on the borders between reality and nightmare, tranquility and terror. (Sweden, 1972, 91 min., R, Swedish with English subtitles| Dir. Ingmar Bergman)

Ingmar Bergman (1918–2007) stands as one of the giants of world cinema and perhaps the father of the flowering of art house movement in America during the 1960s and ’70s. This selection of some of his greatest works feature new digital restorations courtesy of Janus Films and the Swedish Film Institute.
