Synopsis
One of the most acclaimed Swedish films of all time (heralded as a masterpiece by no less than Ingmar Bergman), this moody, masterfully crafted psychological mystery unfolds in a tantalizing series of CITIZEN KANE–esque flashbacks as the neighbors of an enigmatic young woman (Eva Henning) who committed suicide attempt to piece together the truth about what drove her to such a tragic end. It builds to a startling final revelation that, in its sensitivity and daring empathy, marks this heartbreaking study of loneliness and isolation as an important milestone in queer cinema.
