Shadow of Bergman
20 June 2007
A neurotic paintress. A young man- husband, father, part of a gray family life. A delicate wife for who his man is the essence of life. A love story, strange game, subtle end and a script by Ingmar Bergman.

A film about desire, dreams and refuges. About the other as mirror and purpose of own existence. And the emotional cages.

A film as a diamond. Cold, fascinating, with shadows and lights, temptations and strange reflections. A sad story but , in same time, description of a moral victory. Duty versus desire and fear against protective love. Pieces of fiction and the warm of real world.

For me, this film was a special experience. Not a lesson or a good artistic result but a form of filling search. And that may be enough!
