SIXTY-FOUR MINUTES WITH REBECKA (alt. title WHITE WALL)

SOIXANTE-QUATRE MINUTES AVEC REBECKA

A long unknown film script written by Ingmar Bergman

This script was written in 1969 for an “omnibus film” (a very fashionable genre in the 1960s), of which Fellini and Kurosawa should have directed the other two episodes. The Japanese withdraw early, leaving the other two with the project now named: "Love duet". Bergman's script was never filmed and the filmmaker archived it among his working documents.

A beautiful, pregnant young woman, Rebecka, is a teacher of hearing-impaired children. She has complicated relationships with her partner, mother, students, and an abusive lover. Bored with her existence, she yearns for sexual and social liberation.

The script is a take on the political and sexual turmoil of the late 1960s. It is a fascinating script with great potential
