Synopsis

Sweden in the early 1900s was a time of social change, unrest, war, and poverty. Maria, a young, working-class woman, wins a camera in a lottery and her decision to keep it changes her whole life. The camera enables Maria to see the world through new eyes but it also becomes a threat to her alcoholic womanizing husband as it brings the charming photographer “Piff Paff Puff” into her life.
