Our take
In a career spanning some 60 years, Swedish master Jan Troell has amassed a treasure trove of poetic, character-driven stories. Accentuated by a fierce performance from Jesper Christensen, The Last Sentence uses its artistic flourishes to draw profound connections between the personal and political.
