FROM THE LIFE OF THE MARIONETTES (FILM)


Directed by Ingmar Bergman

Stars Robert Atzorn

Sweden

1980

Seen on Blu-Ray disc

An account of the events before and after a murder committed by Peter Egermann, a disturbed businessman in a strained marriage, and what led Peter to perform such a shocking act.

Cold, rather unpleasant film has no-one can relate to and analyses a particularly violent murder.  Well-acted and directed but bleak and hard to watch.
