The Silence (2021)

"The Silence" is Ingmar Bergman's stark, brooding drama about two sisters trapped in a foreign city, their fractured relationship laid bare against a backdrop of illness and repression. Ingrid Thulin anchors the film with a performance of raw physical and emotional exposure, embodying the sister whose frustrated desires simmer beneath the surface. The site carries 1 scene clip capturing her nude, a rare glimpse of the vulnerability Bergman used to strip his characters down to something almost unbearably honest. It's a brief but telling piece of one of European cinema's most unflinching character studies.
