Our take

Exquisitely shot, Liv Ullmann’s take on the classic Strindberg play erotically bristles with feverish female desires, set ablaze amid the beautiful yet austere interiors. Jessica Chastain and Colin Farrell give powerhouse performances as their characters engage in a game of seduction and power.
