Bergman Week
Bergman Week (Swedish: Bergmanveckan) is an annual event organized by the Bergmancenter on the Swedish island of Fårö in the Baltic Sea. Ingmar Bergman moved to the island in the 1960s and the Bergman Week is a celebration of his artistry, with films, lectures and conversations.[1][2]
The first Bergman Week was organised in 2004.[3] Guests in 2012 were among others Belgian directors Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne (Dardenne brothers), author Peter Birro, director Suzanne Osten and opera singer Håkan Hagegård.[4] Guests at the Bergman Week 2011 were among others directors Andrey Zvyagintsev and István Szabó as well as Swedish authors Henning Mankell and Sara Stridsberg.[5][6]
Several Swedish and international guests have visited the week through the years, among them Wim Wenders,[7] Kenneth Branagh,[8] Harriet Andersson, Bibi Andersson and Ang Lee.[9][10] Guests of the Bergman Week 2010 were among others actress Liv Ullmann, playwright Jon Fosse and director Ariane Mnouchkine.[1][11]
