This film takes place in Sweden in the early 1900's and follows the life of Maria Larsson, a working class woman with a large family and abusive husband. With advice from her parents to not get divorced after being beaten the first time she toughens up, finds a hobby [photography], and cares deeply for her kids. Her husband Sigfrid goes through worker strikes, World War I, and prison following one of his attacks on Maria. We also get some glimpses of the life of the children growing up in this time.The films main focus though is the "Everlasting Moments" that come from taking pictures. The fascination with the ability to take pictures and the advent of the cinema. There are some heartwarming scenes, but overall this is an average film that does not compare to some similar American made films in recent history. It might be too slow from some, couple that with the subtitles and this made for a very average film.
