As a director who was awarded the Palme des Palmes at Cannes, Ingmar Bergman is surely the undisputed master in author cinema across the globe. From Tarantino to Woody Allen to Michael Hanneke, all can attest that Bergman is the ultimate cinematographer, as he made of his art and his life a masterpiece to which none can compare. 10 years after his death, as we prepare to celebrate his 100th anniversary in 2018, this film prefers to recount only one year of his life. A pivotal year, a hectic year where he would die, only to be reborn through his passion for cinema, and one film in particular, Persona. A tribute to an exceptional cinematographer.
