Sweden, 1782: A young nobleman, named Jacob Per Oscarsson returns from France to his home and cherished sister Charlotte Bibi Andersson who is engaged to Baron Alsameden Jarl Kulle. The siblings close relationship becomes incestuous...

The film has understandably been compared to the work of Ingmar Bergman director Sjman was an assistant to Bergman with its crisp black and white photography and psychological viewpoint, featuring Bergman's most frequent leading lady Bibi Andersson running the gauntlet of physiological and psychological trauma.

Best known for 1968s twin arthouse succs de scandales I Am Curious Yellow and I Am Curious Blue, Swedish writer/director Vilgot Sjman sustained a long and varied career as a filmmaker a fact generally overlooked by cinephiles on the near side of the Atlantic, where the majority of his features sadly fell through the cracks of distribution, evading cinematic and video release.

See it with someone you love...ONLY at CineCycle!!
