Osbrink 1947. The Year When Everything Began

«In 1947, many phenomena took shape. This year determined what our lives would look like after the war, a discussion about minority rights emerged, the issue of refugees, who were very numerous across Europe at that time, was raised. At... the same time, people debated what it was like to be a woman in this world, how music and art would continue to develop, whether it was possible to use the language that was used before the war, and whether one could speak of war in that language,» — this is how Swedish writer and journalist Elisabeth Osbrink describes her 1947, managing to connect facts and images, the «large» external history and the «small» history of her family in a poignant documentary-artistic study of the year when the foundations of the «post-war arrangement of the world» were laid, which for so long seemed unshakeable.
