Through A Glass Darkly
(Igmar Bergman, 1961, Black & White, Sound, 89 mins)
While vacationing on a remote island retreat, a family finds its fragile ties tested when daughter Karin discovers her father has been using her schizophrenia for his own literary ends. As she drifts in and out of lucidity, Karin’s father, her husband, and her younger brother are unable to prevent her descent into the abyss of mental illness. Winner of the Academy Award for best foreign-language film, Through a Glass Darkly, the first work in Ingmar Bergman’s trilogy on faith and the loss of it, presents an unflinching vision of a family’s near disintegration and a tortured psyche further taunted by the intangibility of God’s presence.
presented on 16mm film!
