INHERITANCE was a very powerful film. A man falls in love with his own daughter before he realises that he has a daughter. The daughter knows before he does, and is suitably appalled. The very human way they work it all out is brilliantly realised by the acting of the two leads, and though tragedy strikes at the end it is tragedy with the quality of redemption in it. The script is very taut and rich and the film is beautifully shot and directed with great skill by Edward Porembny. Tomas Norström makes a great lead as the nihilistic, confused but basically well meaning dad, and Anna Powiersa is extraordinary as the daughter, a stripper by trade but radiating innocence and sweetness in the face of her sleazy destiny. Deserves to be seen by a wide audience, an unusual and strongly realised story.
