Description
[Machine Translation] Master director Ingmar Bergman has left behind a gem in the history of cinema. Bergman's masterpiece, which has won numerous awards including an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film, is now available again on DVD in a 2K restored version! Set in the medieval Swedish countryside, the film depicts the unfortunate tragedy of a Christian girl and her father's violent revenge. The contrast of light and shadow reflecting the nature of Scandinavia and the beauty of monochrome were created by Sven Nyqvist, a famous cameraman who later became internationally renowned. The strong influence of Akira Kurosawa's "Rashomon", which Bergman admired, can be seen in this masterpiece, which is the fruit of the overwhelming acting ability of the actors under Bergman's direction. --Theresa, a wealthy farmer, dotes on her beautiful and naive only daughter, Carlin. Ingeri, a servant who envies her, tries to take a little revenge by putting a toad in her lunchbox sandwich. Carlin accompanies Ingeri to deliver candles to be donated to the church. As they travel deep into the forest, past beautiful lakeshores and fields, Carlin is raped and killed by three shepherds who act alone. Ingeri, who has been following them, witnesses the whole thing, but she is unable to stop them because she is simultaneously amused and horrified by the rape of her hated Karyn. The shepherds knock on the door of Thele's mansion, unaware that he is the father of the girl they have killed... Commentary booklet, postcard enclosed (to be announced).
