One of
the most important filmmakers of this century: Ingmar
Bergman, in one of his rare interviews. This is a long
87-minute conservation where Bergman talks of his
relationship with the films, the music, and other
elements that make up the world of cinema.To further
accentuate his words, the film does not include any part
of his films and may be shown without music. The voice of
the master leads all. Having worked in the cinema for 55
years, his experiences as artist and director are unique:
in addition, he is a specialist on silent film.The
documentary is a profound journey to the very heart of
one of the greatest film directors of all times, an
inexhaustible source of information and inspiration.The
Voice of Bergman is in six parts: “The Word and the
Image”, “The Illusion of Time”, “The
Music of Close-Up”, “Focus of Pain”,
“Shards From the Mirror”, “The Cinema on
Farö”, “The Insanity of Film” and
“The Great Mystery”.
