Vandring med månen (Wandering with the Moon). 1945. Sweden. Directed by Hasse Ekman. Screenplay by Ekman, Walter Ljungquist. With Alf Kjellin, Eva Henning, Stig Järrel. Running away from his home in rural Sweden, a dour young man (Alf Kjellin) encounters a travelling theater company and spends a night with an actress (Eva Henning). As usual for Ekman, vividly drawn characters abound, with the two young lovers meeting, among others, poets, priests, vagabonds, Nazi sympathizers, and old spinsters. By turns sweet, funny, and ominous, Wandering with the Moon is Ekman’s most lyrical film, reminiscent in some ways of Jean Renoir.

This film accompanies Hasse Ekman: The Other Swede in the Room.
