Speed Cinema Screening: Wild Strawberries 9/07/18 6 pm

Directed by Ingmar Bergman

The film that catapulted Bergman to the forefront of world cinema is the director’s richest, most heartfelt movie. Traveling to receive an honorary degree, Professor Isak Borg (masterfully played by the veteran Swedish director Victor Sjöström), is forced to face his past, come to terms with his faults, and accept the inevitability of his approaching death. Through flashbacks and fantasies, dreams, and nightmares, Wild Strawberries captures a startling voyage of self-discovery and renewed belief in mankind. 1957, Sweden, DCP, in Swedish with English subtitles, 91 minutes.  Recommended for 13+.
