Bergman Island Screening at Scandinavia House

On October 13, catch a special screening of the new film Bergman Island (dir. Mia Hansen-Løve; France/Belgium/German/Sweden, 2021), a 2021 Cannes Film Festival Official Selection, at Scandinavia House!

A filmmaking couple living in America, Chris (Vicky Krieps) and Tony (Tim Roth) retreat to the mythical Fårö island for the summer. In this wild, breathtaking landscape where Bergman lived and shot his most celebrated pieces, they hope to find inspiration for their upcoming films. As days spent separately pass by, the fascination for the island operates on Chris and souvenirs of her first love resurface; lines between reality and fiction then progressively blur and tear our couple even more apart.

“A searching exploration of reality and art in the way they mirror, propel and feed on one another, washing ashore remembrances both dreamy and lifelike”—RogerEbert.com

“A stunner worthy of its namesake…about the process of creating an astonishing and personal film”—Film School Rejects
