"Swedish master
Jan Troell, director of the beloved classics
The Emigrants and
The New Land, returns triumphantly with
Everlasting Moments,
the vivid, heartrending story of a woman liberated by art at the
beginning of the twentieth century. Though poor and abused by her
alcoholic husband, Maria Larsson (Maria Heiskanen, in a beautifully
nuanced portrayal) finds an outlet in photography, which opens up her
world for the first time. With a burnished bronze tint that evokes faded
photographs, and a broad empathetic palette,
Everlasting Moments—based on a true story—is a miraculous tribute to the power of image making."
