If you loved From the Life of the Marionettes, try Autumn Sonata
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Ingmar Bergman, and they both carry the foreign gem, gut punch mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to From the Life of the Marionettes, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Autumn Sonata is
Persona without redemption. A concert pianist visits her overlooked daughter after years of neglect, only to find her other, severely disabled daughter living there as well. Bergman's chamber drama is a showcase for two generations of uneasy art.
