Synopsis wrote:
This co-production between Norway and Sweden is the first film that Anja Breien has made since Wives. She has adapted a novel by Hjalmar Soderberg. who also wrote ‘Gertrud’ from which Carl Dreyer’s last film was made, and Doctor Glas’ (made into a film by Mai Zetterhng)

Games of Love and Loneliness, concerns the manners and mores of Scandinavian society between the years 1897 and 1912. A young journalist, Arvid, falls in love with a girl but won’t commit himself to marrying her. She marries an older and richer man and he’s pushed into marrying the girl he’s been sleeping with.

He meets his first love again, and she leaves her husband to have an affair with him, but he still cannot bring himself to leave his wife. Although Anja Breien has changed the character of the girl to make her less of a femme fatale and more of an emancipated woman, the film’s central concern is the young man who cannot make up his mind what to do with his life.
