    About the Movie

    This award-winning film received several accolades and nominations. Roger Ebert praised director Jan Troell as "perhaps the best of the post-Bergman generation of Swedish filmmakers." The movie depicts the struggles of regular people in their homeland and their journey to a new, promising land.

    "Troell has a feeling for the historical past, and for the meaning and beauty of ordinary lives... 'The Emigrants' is a very rare film." - Roger Ebert, RogerEbert.com, January 15, 1973
