Synopsis

Christians Töre and Märeta send their daughter, the virginal Karin, and their foster daughter Ingeri, to deliver candles to a church. On the way, the girls meet three goat herders who brutally rape and murder Karin. When the killers seek refuge in their family’s farm, Töre plots a fitting revenge.

MUBI's take

The existential revenge drama that inspired Wes Craven’s horror classic The Last House on the Left, The Virgin Spring was Ingmar Bergman’s second collaboration with cinematographer Sven Nykvist. Despite being one of the Swedish maestro’s most vicious films, it was the first to win him an Oscar®!
