Synopsis

A television adaptation of August Strindberg’s A Dream Play, the film follows Agnes, the daughter of the god Indra, as she descends to Earth to witness the conditions of human existence. Through a succession of loosely connected scenes, she encounters individuals from different walks of life, with events unfolding according to dream logic rather than linear narrative.
