Deep under the headquarters of the Swedish Film Institute lies a treasure trove: the archive of famed Swedish director Ingmar Bergman.
A thick metal door leads into the storage room where hand-written and typed original manuscripts, drafts, notebooks, production papers, photographs and behind-the-scenes footage from the shooting of Bergman's films, as well as private and professional correspondence, are kept.
Bergman, who died in 2007 at the age of 89, donated the material in 2002.
