One Summer of Happiness

One Summer of Happiness Swedish Hon dansade en sommar She danced for a summer is a 1951 Swedish film by director Arne Mattsson, based on the 1949 novel Sommardansen The Summer Dance by Per Olof Ekstrm. It was the first Swedish film to win the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival. It was also nominated for the Palme dOr at the 1952 Cannes Film Festival. Today, the film is mainly known for its nude scenes, which caused much controversy at the time and, together with Ingmar Bergmans Summer with Monika 1953, spread the image of Swedish free love around the world.

The film caused much international controversy, because of a nude swimming sequence and a love scene which included a closeup of Ulla Jacobssons breasts, but also because of its very anticlerical message by portraying a local priest as the main villain. So, in spite of its awards, the film was banned in several countries, among them Spain, and it wasnt released in the United States until 1955.
