Mai Zetterling's career as a filmmaker stemmed from her disillusionment with acting. Trained at Stockholm's Royal Dramatic Theater, Zetterling debuted on stage and screen in 1. She considered the film Torment her best acting achievement. She worked in British theatre, enacting roles in Chekhov, Anouilh, and Ibsen plays, and in British films. After one part in a Hollywood film, Knock on Wood with Danny Kaye, she spurned contract offers and returned home. With her husband, David Hughes, she made several documentaries in the 1. Zetterling's feature films depict the social status and psyche of women, reflecting her feminist concerns. The uncompromising honesty of perception and technical virtuosity in her films correspond to the pervasive and dominant themes of loneliness and obsession.

Three more followed: The Lords of Little Egypt depicted the gypsies at Saintes- Maries- de- la- Mer; her view of Swedish affluence in The Prosperity Race was not appreciated in Stockholm; and Do- It- Yourself Democracy commented on Icelandic society and government. Her first independent effort was the fifteen- minute anti- war film The War Game, in which two boys tussle for possession of a toy gun. Zetterling's first feature film, Loving Couples, was based on the fifth volume of Swedish author Agnes von Krusenstjerna's seven- volume novel, The Misses von Pahlen. Zetterling wrote the script in one year, with sketches of each shot to indicate camera positions. In it, three expectant mothers in a Stockholm hospital recall their lives in the moment of, and then beyond, the births of their babies. Critic Derek Elley suggests that Zetterling developed her theories and themes of film in Loving Couples and rarely deviated from them in later works. She employs elaborate timelines as well as flashbacks, which she uses often and well, intertwining them one within another. Her films peak emotionally in scenes of parties and social gatherings. Her films are cohesive compositions, with a literary base, filmed in the stark contrasts of black to white, with a range of grays intervening. Zetterling's scenes of sexual behavior are integral to her themes of loneliness and obsession. Loving Couples exemplifies these characteristics. Night Games, derived from Zetterling's novel with the same title, was banned from the Venice Film Festival. The critics who saw it were angered by the Marxist and Freudian elements in it; shocked by scenes of vomiting, masturbation, and childbirth. Based on Hjalmar Soderberg's 1. Doktor Glas, records the haunted love of a young physician for a pastor's wife. Even though the wife does not respond to the physician's erotic overtures, he administers a lethal drug to the pastor. It is Zetterling's grimmest study of loneliness, as Derek Elley observes, and her most pessimistic film, told in one extended flashback, . In Flickorna three actresses perform Lysistrata on tour, acting out the views of the play in their private lives. Some critics reacted negatively, finding it self- indulgent, a mix of Greek comedy and soap opera, with heavy symbolism and confusing time structures. Other critics liked the various forms of humor effectively employed, and the arresting imagery. In 1. 97. 1, Zetterling filmed a documentary in color about Vincent Van Gogh. Titled Vincent the Dutchman, it was shown on American and British television. David Wolper then asked her to film any phase of the 1. Olympics she chose; she filmed the weightlifting sequence, . In the 1. 97. 0s, Zetterling published three novels, pursuing creative directions other than filmmaking. She also continued making documentaries (one on tennis champion Stan Smith, one dealing with Stockholm, another on marriage customs), along with a seven- hour adaptation for French television of Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex. Zetterling asserted that whatever she filmed, it would be.
