Everlasting Moments is a Swedish period drama film directed by Jan Troell, released in 2008. The film is set at the beginning of the 20th century and is based on the true story of Maria Larsson, a woman who wins a camera in a lottery and discovers a new passion for photography that changes her life completely. Maria Larsson is a working-class woman living in the city of Malmo, South Sweden. She is married to Sigfrid, a man who drinks heavily and is abusive towards her and their children. Despite their difficult life, Maria is a resilient woman who finds joy in small things and manages to hold her family together.

One day, Maria wins a camera in a lottery and starts to take pictures of her surroundings - her children, her husband, everyday life in the city. At first, Sigfrid and the people around her seem indifferent to her new hobby, but slowly Maria discovers that photography is a way for her to escape her everyday life and explore her own creativity.

As Maria gets better at photography, she meets a local photographer named Sebastian Pedersen, who recognizes her talent and offers to teach her more about the craft. Maria is hesitant at first, but soon becomes his assistant and learns a lot about the technical and artistic aspects of photography.

Meanwhile, World War I breaks out, and Sigfrid is drafted into the army. Maria is left alone with their children and struggles to make ends meet. Despite the difficulties, she continues to take pictures and to develop her artistic skills, finding solace and purpose in her photography.

As the war ends, Sigfrid comes back traumatized and Maria must find a way to reconcile with him while continuing to pursue her passion for photography. She enters a photo contest and wins, which brings her national recognition and leads to a life-changing opportunity.

Everlasting Moments is a beautifully shot and well-acted film that portrays the struggles and joys of a woman who manages to find meaning and empowerment through photography. The film is a tribute to those who have the courage to follow their dreams and to find beauty in the world around them, even in the darkest of times.
