Written and directed by Hansen-Løve (Things to Come, Eden), the film will receive its world premiere at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, and stars Vicky Krieps (Phantom Thread, Hanna, Das Boot) and Tim Roth ( Chronic, The Hateful Eight, Pulp Fiction) along with Mia Wasikowska (Maps to the Stars, Crimson Peak,Stoker) and Anders Danielsen Lie (Personal Shopper, Oslo, August 31st).
Bergman Island tells the story of a couple of American filmmakers, Chris (Vicky Krieps) and Tony (Tim Roth), who retreat to the mythical Fårö island for the Summer. In this wild, breathtaking landscape where Bergman lived and shot his most celebrated pieces, they hope to find inspiration for their upcoming films. As days spent separately pass by, the fascination for the island operates on Chris and souvenirs of her first love resurface. Lines between reality and fiction will then progressively blur and tear our couple even more apart.
