the Seventh Seal

WAFS invites you this Sunday 8th of March to see the screening of "The Seventh Seal", the classic film that brought Ingmar Bergman international acclaim.

Synopsis:


A Knight returns from the Crusades to Sweden only to find it ravaged by the Plague. Not only this, but Death has come for him too. The Knight challenges Death to a game of Chess, which they play out during their trip back to the Knight's castle, where his wife awaits. As the battle of wits progresses, the Knight must come to terms with not only his mortality, but with his broken faith and existential crisis...


To help you make up your mind, here's a link to the opening scene.
