Swedish with Turkish subtitles

With this spare chamber piece, set in an empty theater, Ingmar Bergman returned to his perennial theme of the permeability of life and art. Lingering after a rehearsal for August Strindberg’s A Dream Play, eminent director Henrik enters into a frank and flirtatious conversation with his up-and-coming star, Anna leading him to recall his affair with Anna’s late mother, the self-destructive actress Rakel. The sharply written and impeccably performed After the Rehearsal, pares away all artifice to examine both the allure and the cost of a life in the theater.
