Sobre o filme

A sequence for The Emigrants (1971). Starting a new life in the New World from almost nothing is not easy. The winters and summers are more extreme than in the Old World. But the immigrants are rewarded for their hard work. They now live a better life than they did in Sweden. Bad times also come, however. The civil war starts, and the Sioux Indians make a bloody uprising against the white settlers. Karl-Oskar`s family survives all these. His brother, Robert, decides to seek his fortune in the gold fields of California. Kristina, whose thoughts never leave Sweden, has several more births and gets pregnant again against the advice of her doctor. The children grow up and take over the farm. Karl-Oskar becomes old and lonely. He spends his last days dreaming of his youth in the Old World.
