"All Things Fair"
1995
Directed by Bo Widerberg

A young man and his teacher become wrapped up in an extremely volatile romance in the impressive final film from director Bo Widerberg (Elvira Madigan), who died two years after its release. Set in Sweden during WWII, the coming-of-age story unfolds as 15-year-old Stig (Johan Widerberg, Bo's son) falls madly in love with his older, married teacher, Viola (Marika Lagercrantz), who readily returns the boy's affections. The relationship takes a bitter, violent turn when Stig attempts to break it off. Winner of the Blue Angel and Silver Bear Awards at the 1966 Berlinale Film Festival. Swedish with English subtitles.  125 minutes.
