Golden Age Hooptober challenge movie with this Oldie. Bringing it way way back to the 1920s decades is 𝙷𝚊̈𝚡𝚊𝚗: Witchcraft Through the Ages. It’s also a countries challenge as this is a Sweden film.

“We no longer burn our old and poor. But do they not often suffer bitterly?"

I watched this version on HBO Max and it’s a great restoration. It’s a good documentary on witchcraft and superstition. It does even try to make you think perhaps it’s true. I think it tried because the things that the doctors declared “Hysteria” back in the 20s and the way they would hospitalize women was horrible. It does mention how horrible the past witch trials were. How 8+ million people died from these ridiculous “trials.”

As for the story within this documentary to help create an understanding of things, I loved it! The cast and acting in this is beautiful. The vibes in each scene is perfection. I’d definitely rewatch this!
