About the film

Bergman's TV adaptation of August Strindberg's play Storm was presented on the 111th anniversary of the author's birth. The production was also shown in Denmark and Norway and received glowing reviews. Bergman was celebrated as an outstanding TV director and was praised for his tact and sympathy in depicting old age, his superior lighting and fine camera work as well as his understanding of the medium in his use of close-ups.

Ingvar Kjellson, who played the brother of the man, returned to the role when Bergman directed the play for the radio in 1999.
