A beautiful and bold new adaptation of Strindberg's classic battle of the sexes play set on a Midsummer's night in a rustic mansion in 1920s Europe.

Miss Julie has recently broken her engagement to her wealthy fiancé. On Midsummer night eve, with her father out of town, Miss Julie and her best friend Viola throw a party for their friends; on the same day, a newly hired servant arrives, and it quickly becomes clear he is looking for more than a job. The film is lushly photographed in the beautifully Swedish countryside and builds in tension until its shattering finale.—Anonymous
