If you loved Der Ritus, try An die Freude
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Ingmar Bergman, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Der Ritus, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What An die Freude 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.
