About The Dance of the Damned Women
This short dance film presents four women moving within a narrow, enclosed room to music by Claudio Monteverdi. Conceived as a dance play rather than a ballet, the performers embody recurring female roles passed down across generations, including figures identified as damned souls, death, and a child compelled into the same patterns.
Directed by Ingmar Bergman, The Dance of the Damned Women leans on a strong ensemble — Helene Friberg, Nina Harte, Lena Wennergren — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about tv movie titles of 1976.
