Cited by many as the most “personal” effort of Swedish filmmaker Arne Sucksdorff, The Great Adventure is also one of his few films to tie together its magnificent images with a dramatic narrative. “Adventure” means “life” to Sucksdorff, and that life is experienced by a group of Swedish farm children, two of whom are played by the director’s own sons. The kids save a wild otter from a hunter, then attempt to tame the animal. When spring comes, the children realize without remorse that the otter will be happier roaming free in the wilderness.

Terrific film! Thanks immensely, Jon!
Last time I have seen this was early 1970″s on the big screen. Excellent film. Thank you Jon
Just discovered your site, that’s great! <3
Too sad many of these are without any subtitles, but oh, well !
Anyway thank you very much for this one
More wilderness cinema, please!
Cheers from Italy .-)
Thank you so much! For decades, I have read comments on this work ( including Pauline kael’s glowing capsule review) and longed to see it. AT last, my dream is fulfilled, and the film certainly lives up to all the acclaim it has received. It is a subtle masterpiece of shimmering beauty, immense charm, and enormous poignancy. The struggles of the “ great adventure” of life for all creatures (including human beings) are captured without sentimentality. A flawless creation!
Thank you!
An honest and innocent film as well.
