NOTES

Title from sell sheet

Based on a series of semi-autobiographical novels by Nobel Prize winner Eyvind Johnson, it follows a working-class boy's development, from naive teenager to intellectually curious young adult, from logger to movie projectionist to politically engaged man of the people, all set against the backdrop of a slowly industrializing rural landscape. With its mix of modernist visual ingenuity and elegantly structured storytelling
