EVERLASTING MOMENTS, (aka MARIA LARSSONS EVIGA OGONBLICK), Maria Heiskanen, 2008. ©IFC Films/Courtesy Everett Collection
In Sweden a century ago, Maria (Maria Heiskanen) — wife of a loving drunk, mother of seven — wins a camera and through its lens finds a talent for photography and a reason to live. Jan Troell (The Emigrants) directs this lovely tale of empowerment through art.
