The Dryden will screen Jag är Ingrid (Ingrid Bergman: In Her Own Words, Stig Björkman, Sweden 2015, 114 min., DCP, English and Swedish w/subtitles).

In spring 2011, director Stig Björkman met Ingrid Bergman's daughter Isabella Rossellini, and she suggested they "make a film about Mama." Through Rossellini, Stig was able to tell Bergman's story through her own words and images. Seven-time Academy Award nominee and three-time Academy Award winner Ingrid Bergman was one of the most talented actresses of Hollywood's Golden Age, with great performances in films such as Casablanca (1942), Gaslight (1944), and Autumn Sonata (1978). Through never-before-seen private footage, notes, letters, diaries, and interviews with her children, Ingrid Bergman In Her Own Words presents a personal and captivating portrait of the remarkable life of a young Swedish girl who became one of the most celebrated actresses of American and world cinema.
