# The Lass from the Stormy Croft (1917)

1917 · 87 min · Drama · Sweden

Original title: Tösen från Stormyrtorpet

## Synopsis

The Lass from the Stormy Croft is a 1917 silent Swedish drama film directed by Victor Sjöström. It is based on the 1908 novella with the same title by Swedish author Selma Lagerlöf, the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. It was the first in a series of successful Lagerlöf adaptions by Sjöström, made possible by a deal between Lagerlöf and A-B Svenska Biografteatern to adapt at least one Lagerlöf novel each year. Lagerlöf had for many years denied any proposal to let her novels be adapted for film, but after seeing Sjöström's Terje Vigen she finally decided to give her consent.
