SUMMARY:SAM Films | Hilma
DESCRIPTION:From July 2025 through June 2026\, join us for free matinees at the Seattle
  Art Museum. These films explore themes from art on view at SAM and bring i
 deas from the museum’s exhibitions\, collections\, and programs to the big 
 screen. Check out SAM Films for all upcoming events and details.\nThe sprin
 g film selections are curated by Scarecrow Video and are related to Beyond 
 Mysticism: The Modern Northwest.\nHilma(Dir. Lasse Hallström\, 2023\, 1 hr 
 54 min) Hilma is a richly crafted biographical drama that immerses you in t
 he life and visionary spirit of Swedish artist Hilma af Klint\, a pioneerin
 g abstract painter whose spiritually charged work was largely unknown durin
 g her lifetime. The film follows her from early artistic ambitions through 
 deep personal loss\, spiritual exploration in Theosophy and séances\, and t
 he radical creation of abstract art long before it was recognized by histor
 y\, highlighting her unconventional relationships and the mystical forces t
 hat drove her creativity. Portrayed in youth by Tora Hallström and in later
  years by Lena Olin\, Hilma celebrates a woman ahead of her time\, whose le
 gacy reshaped the art world following the posthumous acclaim of her groundb
 reaking work.
