Ernst Georg af Klercker was a Swedish writer, actor, photographer and director. After being forced to take leave of the military he became an actor. Two years later in 1912 he directed his first film, "Två bröder/Two Brothers". The film was however banned for moral reasons. But Klercker was unstoppable. He made three other feature films during the same year. Ingmar Bergman has appointed Georg af Klercker the first master of filmmaking in Sweden. Not least for his ability to create that magic depth in his pictures.
