Synopsis
"Max Von Sydow and Liv Ullmann star in the second half of a sweeping epic of the immigrant experience in The New Land." [Amazon Prime] "It is a sequel to Troell's The Emigrants (1971); both are based on The Emigrants novels by Vilhelm Moberg. Drawing its story from the last two of these novels – The Settlers (1956) and The Last Letter Home (1959) – the film is about Swedish immigrants establishing their home in Minnesota, including during the Dakota War of 1862."
