If you loved El rito prohibido, try Hacia la felicidad
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Ingmar Bergman, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to El rito prohibido, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hacia la felicidad is
A violinist’s pursuit of artistic perfection wrecks his marriage, narrated in flashbacks set to Beethoven’s Ninth. The film dissects ambition and love with Bergman’s customary gravity. It’s less a symphony than a string quartet—intimate, uneven, but quietly moving.
