Everlasting Moments
Romantic drama set in early 20th-century Sweden about a housewife whose photography helps her see the world anew as she raises six children and copes with an abusive husband.
Drama based on a true story and set in Sweden in the early 1900s, a time of social change and unrest, of war and poverty.
Maria is a young working-class woman who wins a camera in a lottery and decides to keep it, which changes her life. The camera lets her see the world anew, but becomes a threat to her alcoholic womaniser of a husband, when she meets charming photographer Sebastian 'Piff Paff Puff'.
By day, the life of Maria and her family is weighed down by the problem of acquiring food, but at night, while Sigfrid is sleeping off his drunkenness and the children are in bed, Maria develops her pictures in the kitchen. Her photography and her relationship with Piff Paff Puff disclose a possible path to freedom and independence.
In Swedish with English subtitles.
