"(Englightenment philosopher Immanuel) Kant also said this but Astrid Lindgren says these things in a very, very simple way that just enters you when you are a child." "One of the things she might have learned from this is you have to think for yourself." "What happened here in this story made Astrid a really, really strong person," Fischer Christensen said. The film examines the wrenching choices she was forced to make as a result, and the life lessons she drew. While still a teenager in conservative Sweden in the 1920s, the then Astrid Ericsson had an affair with her boss, the married editor-in-chief of the local newspaper, and fell pregnant. "Becoming Astrid" by Danish filmmaker Pernille Fischer Christensen exposes the little-known backstory behind one of the world's most enduring girl characters, with her gravity-defying red plaits, abundant freckles and superhuman strength.
