If you loved The Emigrants, try The New Land
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 Jan Troell, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama / History / Western territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Emigrants, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The New Land is
The Emigrants without hope. A Swedish farming family arrives in 1850s Minnesota to claim land and build a better life, only to face famine, illness, and cultural isolation. Liv Ullmann and Max von Sydow make hardship feel epic.
