Filmmaker Ingmar Bergman (1918 – 2007) has a work that influences renowned directors around the world. This is because his filmography deals with essential and universal aspects of man, maintaining an acute concern with the existential condition of modernity. In the year of its centenary, Ingmar Bergman is chosen for the September exhibition of Rogério Sganzerla Cineclub. The Swedish director has produced more than 50 films in his 60-year career. The first film to be shown at the exhibition is the seventh seal, released in 1958. Synopsis: After ten years, a knight returns from the Crusades and finds the country ravaged by the Black Death. His faith in God is sensibly shaken and as he reflects on the meaning of life, Death appears before him wanting to take him, for his time has come. In order to buy time, he invites her to a game of chess that will decide whether he leaves with Death or not. It all depends on his victory in the game and Death agrees to the challenge, as he never loses.
