Our contemporary Ingmar Bergman hardly needs any special introduction. He is a world-famous film director and one of the creators of auteur cinema, an outstanding theater director and writer. The novel "Good Intentions" was published in 1991, and already in 1992 it was made into a feature film, which received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. What is this novel about? About human destiny, about the search for love and the dream of happiness, about man’s attempts, often unsuccessful and sometimes tragic, to resist the forces of evil and destruction in the outside world and in himself.
