Mai Zetterling during the filming of the feature film Hets in the studios of Filmstaden in 1944. In the film, she played the role of Bertha Olsson. The film had its Swedish premiere on October 2, 1944 in eight cinemas simultaneously. Screenplay Ingmar Bergman. Directed by Alf Sjöberg
The film was a success with both critics and audiences.
Mai Zetterling (1925–1994) was a Swedish actor, director and writer who made a big impression in the film world.
She broke through as an actress in Alf Sjöberg's Hets (1944), which was the starting point for a successful career in Sweden and internationally, with roles in films such as Driver dagg faller regn (1946) and the British Frieda (1947).
In the 1960s, she transitioned to directing and made her debut with Loving Couple (1964), a controversial and acclaimed film that competed at Cannes.
Other highlights include Nattlek (1966), Flickorna (1968) – which later became a feminist classic – and Amorosa (1986), a magnificent portrayal of Agnes von Krusenstjerna.
As one of the few female directors of her time, she broke new ground with her courageous and artistic filmmaking.
The picture taken by photographer Kristoffersson was published in 1944 in the magazine Filmjournalen. A spread of fantastic photographs from the filming of Hets. A piece of film and photo history.
Our premium quality, heavier, white, matte paper has a natural, smooth, uncoated finish that feels luxurious to the touch.
