The Ingmar Bergman Foundation hosts an international seminar on Ingmar Bergman’s artistic influence on various art forms. What constitutes Bergman’s heritage? What is it that constantly attracts new artists to explore his work? An international panel of theatre and film directors will participate.

In conjunction with the above seminar, The Ingmar Bergman Foundation hosts the launch of a new compilation of behind the scenes features made at the initiative of Martin Scorsese’s World Cinema Foundation. It includes exclusive material from the Ingmar Bergman Foundation archives – from Sawdust and Tinsel to Persona – which has now been entered on the UNESCO Memory of the World list.
