Habitat Film Club presents "Mindscape- Winter Light" film screening at Habitat World, IHC, Lodhi Road > 7pm on 9th June 2011
Time : 7:00 pm
Event Details : Habitat Film Club presents 'Mindscape- Winter Light'.
Perhaps the most spiritually bleak and visually stark of Ingmar Bergman's religious chamber series, Winter Light, the second film of the trilogy, is a transitional film, both thematically and conceptually. It marks Bergman's final exploration of religious faith, and serves as a prelude to the human relational drama of his subsequent work. Similar to Through a Glass Darkly, minimal cast, dialogue, and scenery pervade the film, distilling the atmosphere, and story, to its fundamental essence: God's silence. The use of monologues, prolonged silences, and extreme close-ups convey character introspection and emotional isolation. Furthermore, the barren landscape, seasonal climate, and Tomas' illness serve to further reflect the cold emptiness of his soul.
