Portrait of a European Actor. The Ingmar Bergman / Andrey Tarkovsky / Liliana Cavani-actor Erland Josephson; on acting and living, bluffing and performing, reality and fiction. Josephson, beside his wide ranging film-work, in September 2006 celebrates fifty years as an actor at the Royal Dramatic Theater in Stockholm. The film is not only a great tribute to 2500 years of European theater-acting, it's also a quest for life in the tradition of the King's Fool speaking the truth, an existential account of art and lifetime. As the living legend Josephson himself puts it: "The cemeteries are crowded with immortal human beings." In this witty film, dealing with questions of identity, the actor Erland Josephson - at the age of 82 - plays against some of Scandinavia's leading actresses, such as Lena Endre, Maria Bonnevie, Stina Ekblad and Ghita Nørby.
