Classic drama from acclaimed director Ingmar Bergman. Bengt (Birger Malmsten) is a promising young musician who is accidentally blinded in a firing range accident when completing his military service. Becoming isolated and withdrawn, he refuses all offers of help from the people closest to him, until he hires Ingrid (Mai Zetterling) to act as his assistant. Gradually falling in love with her, but dissatisfied at his inability to earn a living as a pianist, Bengt enrolls at a school for the blind, expecting Ingrid to be waiting for him when he graduates. Ingrid has moved on however and is now in a committed relationship, a situation that provokes Bengt to a fit of violence in an attempt to make himself feel 'whole' again.

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Made in 1948, Ingmar Bergman's fourth feature proved highly popular in his native Sweden and helped cement his position as one of the world's most promising direcctors. The film tells the heartwrenching story of a blind piano teacher who falls in love with one of his students, a tale laden with masterfully directed dream sequences and breathtaking imagery.
