More than 100 votes and no review so far is a bit surprising. Anyway, I checked out an old review that I wrote to this and I found the words "good acting" which is not as true after a second look. The lines are mainly delivered unconvincingly and slowly, as is the film itself: mostly tedious. It was obviously made in the wake of the success of Jan Troell's Emigrants epics (also starring Eddie Axberg), but this lacks what made those films great.

What it has is first and foremost beautiful cinematography and the pathos for its characters (it is clearly made in the very RED 1970s Sweden) but this is not the place to start looking for quality drama depicting 19th century Scandinavia.
