A married couple of musicians on an island are caught up in a civil war.
Sinekatalog’s take
Ingmar Bergman's war drama sees two musicians on an island ruined by civil conflict. Liv Ullmann and Max von Sydow are superb in a stark, harrowing film about cowardice and violence.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
