Alf Sjöberg
Sweden,
1944
Ingmar Bergman's first produced screenplay was for the great Swedish filmmaker Alf Sjöberg's _Torment,_ a dark coming-of-age drama about a boarding-school senior, Widgren, terrorized by his sadistic Latin teacher. When Widgren falls for a troubled local girl, Bertha, he finds himself caught up even further in a web of emotional mind games.
