A dark, beautiful tale of revenge, religion, redemption and forgiveness.When a devout young girl is raped and killed by herders, her deeply religious parents find their most sacred beliefs challenged. Her father is consumed by a thirst for justice and a violent need for vengeance. The Virgin Spring exposes a society on the cusp between mysticism and Christianity and explores the power of reconciliation. Derived from a medieval legend, The Virgin Spring was director Ingmar Bergman’s first film to win an Academy Award (for Best Foreign Language Film). The Virgin Spring sees a return to simpler themes for Bergman after the complexities of The Seventh Seal and Wild Strawberries.
