Portrait of a European Actor.
The Ingmar Bergman / Andrey Tarkovsky / Liliana Cavani-actor Erland Josephson on acting and living, bluffing and performing, reality and fiction. Josephson, beside his wideranging filmwork, in September 2006 celebrates fifty years as an actor at the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm. The film is not only a great tribute to 2500 years of European theatre-acting, it's also a quest for life in the tradition of the King's Fool speaking the truth, an existential account of art and lifetime. As the living legend Josephson himself puts it: "The cemeteries are crowded with immortal human beings.”
In this witty film, dealing with questions of identity, the actor Erland Josephson - at the age of 82 - plays against some of Scandinavia's leading actresses, such as Lena Endre, Maria Bonnevie, Stina Ekblad and Ghita Nørby. Strindberg, Chechov and Beckett are being used as contemporaries, their dramatic material put in context with our full speed society and the great question of all art forms: "Who am I, at this brief moment, in the world of today?” A film about being dedicated to curiosity and the energy of art: “Only through art it's possible to express what you don’t understand.”
