        Overview

        A dying woman (Andersson) is attended to in her rural mansion by her sisters (Liv Ullmann, Ingrid Thulin) and her maid... That’s the simple premise for one of Bergman’s most resonant studies of familial bonds, solitude, suffering and the female psyche. The remarkable saturated colour scheme transcends mere recreation of early 20th-century furnishings, décor and costumes; performed to perfection, the film is an examination of the human soul.

        Ranked joint 225th in the 2022 Sight and Sound Great Films of All Time poll
