Liv & Ingmar

(Dheeraj Akolkar, 2012)

One of the greatest actors of our time, Liv Ullmann met Ingmar Bergman in 1965 during the filming of Persona. Both were married, and there was a difference in age, but none of it mattered. They eventually lived under the same roof for five years, had a child, and made 12 films together. Now, nearly 50 years later, Ingmar is gone...but their bond remains. Told entirely from Ullmann’s point of view through an interview filmed at the house she shared with Bergman, Liv & Ingmar collects excerpts from their films, still photos, behind-the-scenes footage, and personal letters to tell the tale of two great artists who were also human beings, lovers, and friends. (83 mins., DCP)
