Lasse Hallström's film about the artistic genius and pioneer Hilma af Klint, starring Tora Hallström and Lena Olin.

The film is about Hilma af Klint (1862-1944), a pioneer of abstract art who has only been recognized and celebrated as a true visionary after her death. She was born in Stockholm and developed an abstract visual language as early as 1906 – long before the male artists who have long been regarded as forerunners of abstract art in the 20th century. An equally important part in the depiction of her life is Hilma's spiritual side. She formed the group "The Five" played in the film by Lily Cole, Catherine Chalk, Rebecca Calder and Maeve Dermody.

Dir: Lasse Hallström, Sweden, 2022, 93 min
