Swedish Silent Film: Monastery of Sendomir (Klostret I Sendomir, Victor Sjostrom,1920)

by Scott Lord on Silent Film, Scott Lord on Mystery Film
Bo Florin, Stockholm University, in his volume Transition and Transformation, Victor Sjostrom in Hollywood 1923-1930, points to Victor Sjostrom's use of dissolves in the film "Monastery of Sedomir" as "transformatory devices", to thematiclly link two images. "The dissolve works, in other words, as an independent device, which does not in this context recieve any clarifying support from any other narrative patterns." The character, and the setting in which he placed, change as motif with the dissolve.
Peter Cowie, in his volume Swedish Cinema adds that the film "is not easily recognizable as a film by Sjostrom, for landscape and countryside play no part in it at all."
"The Monastery of Sendomir" (Klostret i Sendomir) was written and directed for Svenska Biografteatern by Victor Sjostrom during 1920. Photographed by Henrik Jaenzon the film starred actresses Rene Bjorling, Jenny-Tschernichin-Larsson and Tora Teje in the first film in which she was to appear during a year in which she would star with actress Mary Johnson in the film "Familjens Traditioner" under the direction of Rune Carlsten, however meteoric her career might seem. The screenplay to "Monastery of Sendomir" was adapted from a short story by Franz Grillparzer that, despite whatever reason Sjostrom had for choosing the material, had been filmed a year earlier, in Germany, by director Rudolph Meinert, starring actress Ellen Richter.
