This feature-length documentary was directed by Gösta Werner, produced by Sjöström biographer Bengt Forslund, and features Ingmar Bergman.

This editon of the documentary has been paired with one of Victor Sjöström’s best-known films, previously available on laserdisc and VHS videotape. Its appearance on DVD has been too long coming, and is to be considered a companion piece to Bengt Forslund’s biography on Sjöström.
