Synopsis: In the elegant world of artists and musicians, Gertrud ends her marriage to Gustav and takes a lover, the composer Erland Jansson. When he also fails to live up to her idealistic standards, she leaves him and imposes on herself a kind of exile of the heart. In flashbacks and in conversations laced with memories, we also learn of her affair with Gabriel, who still wishes she would go off with him, and we learn of her adolescence, with its early expression of her isolating ideal of absolute love.
Winner of FIPRESCI Prize at the 26th Venice International Film Festival and the Prix du comité directeur at the 7th Festival des Ciné-Rencontres in Prades.
The film will be preceded by a presentation.
