Celebrate with us the 100-year anniversary of Ingmar Bergman's birth

The section Bergman Revisited celebrates the 100th anniversary of the birth of one of the most important directors and cinematic auteurs of the 20th century, Ingmar Bergman. As part of the section, we will be presenting short films by six Swedish directors who, each in their own way, reflect on Bergman’s work. Audiences will be treated to films by, among others: director and actress Pernilla August, whom they will recognize from Bergman’s classic Fanny and Alexander or as Anakin Skywalker’s mother Shmi from the Star Wars saga; Tomas Alfredson, director of the spy drama Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, and Patrik Eklund, whose short films regularly win awards at Cannes or Sundance and whose film Instead of Abracadabra, previously shown at the Prague Short Film Festival, was nominated for an Academy Award in the short film category. More information about films is available here.
