Storyline
A sensitive exploration of the tragic irony of the psychiatrist suffering with mental illness. Dr. Jenny Isaksson is a psychiatrist married to another psychiatrist; both are successful in their jobs but slowly, agonizingly, she succumbs to a breakdown. Jenny is haunted by images and emotions from her past and eventually cannot function, either as a wife, a doctor or as an individual. Written by Sujit R. Varma

Trivia
Originally a four-part TV mini-series: 1. Uppbrottet (Separation); 2. Gränsen (The Border); 3. Skymningslandet (Twilight Land); 4. Återkomsten (The Return). A total of 181 minutes cut down to 130 minutes (25 fps). See more »Quotes
Dr. Jenny Isaksson: My legs aren't there. Could someone get them over there in the corner and put them back on?See more »
A tremendous performance by Liv Ullman as a psychiatrist who is herself slowly going mad, haunted by dreams or visions of her past, pushing her towards suicide.
Some of the dream imagery is truly striking and nightmarish – once again Bergman comes close to making a horror film.
But at times these visions and their symbols are a bit on the nose, and at times they get repetitive.
None the less, I look foreword to seeing this again.
I only wish the full 200 minute version (made as 4 50 minute parts for Swedish TV) were available. I have a feeling that might make for a richer experience
