- Synopsis
- The Emigrants is the story of Kristina Nilsson, a mother who leaves a poverty-stricken Sweden with her family in the 1850s and sets out on a long, dangerous journey, hoping to find a better life for herself and her children in America. The film is based on Vilhelm Moberg’s much- loved suite of novels The Emigrants, and the story is now being told on film for the first time from Kristina’s perspective.
