In early 20th-century Sweden, a working-class teenager comes of age as he takes on various jobs to support his family after his father falls ill.

A poor laborer from the country comes to rapidly growing Stockholm and starts a new life full of struggle. Based on the book by Per Anders Fogelström.

On the coast of Sweden in 1888, a 12-year-old orphan finds adventure and new hope that his missing father survived a shipwreck years before.

Karl Oskar Nilsson (Max von Sydow) and his wife, Kristina (Liv Ullmann), work a farm in a cold and desolate area of rural Sweden in the middle of the 19th century. The growing privations of their life, combined with increasing social and religious persecution, cause the Nilssons and many of their neighbors to strike out for the United States. Following a treacherous ocean crossing and an equally grueling land passage, the emigrants find themselves in the seemingly idyllic land of Minnesota.

Max Von Sydow and Liv Ullmann star in the second half of a sweeping epic of the immigrant experience in The New Land. Continuing the story begun in The Emigrants, a Scandinavian family struggles to survive and tame the wilderness of Minnesota territory in the 1850s as they cope with a harsh climate, isolation and an inability to speak the language of their adopted country.
