Geschichte
Traveling through an unnamed European country on the brink of war, sickly, intellectual Ester, her sister Anna and Anna's young son, Johan, check into a near-empty hotel. A basic inability to communicate among the three seems only to worsen during their stay. Anna provokes her sister by enjoying a dalliance with a local man, while the boy, left to himself, has a series of enigmatic encounters that heighten the growing air of isolation.
Zusammenfassung
'The Silence', directed by Ingmar Bergman in 1963, is a psychological drama that explores themes of isolation, loneliness, and human connection. Set primarily in a hotel room in an unnamed city, the film follows two estranged sisters who seem to have little affection for each other despite their shared predicament. The younger sister's sexual encounters contrast sharply with the older sister's desperate longing for human touch, creating a tense atmosphere throughout the film. Bergman masterfully uses minimal dialogue and expressive visuals to convey his characters' inner turmoil.
