Our take
A rare opportunity to see Ingmar Bergman at work, this fascinating film takes us behind-the-scenes as the Swedish maestro directs his muse Liv Ullmann and discusses the camera with cinematographer Sven Nykvist. It’s a heart-warming portrait of a unique working method, full of tenderness and humor.
