Autumn Sonata
1978/10/08 • Released • English, Swedish
A mother and a daughter. What a terrible combination of feelings, confusion and destruction.
Overview
After a seven-year absence, Charlotte Andergast travels to Sweden to reunite with her daughter Eva. The pair have a troubled relationship: Charlotte sacrificed the responsibilities of motherhood for a career as a classical pianist. Over an emotional night, the pair reopen the wounds of the past.
