Everything can happen, everything is possible and probable. Time and place do not exist, on an insignificant basis of reality, the imagination spins, weaving new patterns: a mixture of memories, experience, free fancies, incongruities and improvisations.
A sumptuously emotional period piece and a tender recollection of childhood memories and escapes into fantasies, Fanny & Alexander is one of Bergman's most personal, richly detailed and haunting masterpieces that serves as a fitting end to his cinematic career.
