    Synopsis

    When disillusioned Swedish knight Antonius Block returns home from the Crusades to find his country in the grips of the Black Death, he challenges Death to a chess match for his life. Tormented by the belief that God does not exist, Block sets off on a journey, meeting up with traveling players Jof and his wife, Mia, and becoming determined to evade Death long enough to commit one redemptive act while he still lives.

      It's needless to say that this is one of the best movies ever made. I love Bergmans way of how through the actors actions or dialogs gives the answers of the most crucial questions, like the meaning of life, death, God and human nature. His touch of esthetics in impecable, simple and powerful.
