Jerusalem


Set in Sweden, and Jerusalem, around the turn of the century, this is the epic tale of a young man who feels done out of his inheritance, and tries to regain it via a loveless marriage. Meanwhile his sister and childhood sweetheart go off to Jerusalem with a slightly kooky preacher, to await the second coming of Jesus.
Although this is an art movie, it has received mixed reviews, and some of the critics have not been kind, while the people in the street seem to like it.
