Vigdis (film)
''Vigdis'' is a Norwegian film from 1943 directed by Helge Lunde. It is based on the novel ''Vigdis og hennes barns fedre'' (Vigdis and Her Child's Fathers), which was published by the lawyer Albert Wiesener in 1931 under the pseudonym Frantz Ferdinand. Plot Vigdis is the daughter of the teacher and fervent church singer Jens Bjørkeli. Vigdis is often at parties with other young people from the area, something her strict parents do not like. Their concern is not entirely unjustified because the residents of the area have started talking about their daughter in the town. Her parents try to get her to go to Christian meetings, but she always manages to evade this. The parents suspect their maid Kari of helping Vigdis. Vigdis is in love with Dr. Victor Falck. However, she does not tell anyone about this because Falck is engaged to Gerda Storm. In the evening there is dancing, and Vigdis kisses Falck. A few days later there is a mission meeting, and Vigdis is there with her parents. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
