Dans la Suède du début du XXème siècle, Arvid Stjärnblom, un jeune journaliste, et Lydia Stille, fille d'un artiste peintre, tombent éperdument amoureux. Mais leur idéal d'une passion pure et inconditionnelle se heurte à la réalité de l'époque ; désargentés et effrayés par l'avenir, ils épousent finalement, l'un comme l'autre, un parti plus fortuné. Des années plus tard, alors que chacun a fondé un foyer, ils se retrouvent. Déchirés entre famille et passion, ils devront dès lors assumer leur choix et en payer le prix... (Paradis Films)

Critiques (1)
It is the usual romantic story combined with one absolutely exemplary case of infidelity. The beginning is typical. Two people meet and they immediately fall in love. Consequently, due to some coincidences and circumstances they will not meet again, and so in the following years they both create an economic marriage, where in both cases the other person is rich and thus sufficiently provides for them. And while she has a really shitty marriage, his is pretty much functioning and his wife is more than nice. But chance unites them again, and that is the origin of an affair, which is the exemplary reason for the break-up of a marriage. The only really interesting character in this film was Arvid’s wife, who had kindness in her eyes, but as soon as she found out that her husband was unfaithful, she began to have quite decent hysterical fits. The rest of the film is absolutely boring, and it made me pray for a quick end.
