When Astrid Lindgren was very young something happened that affected her profoundly, and this combination of both miracle and calamity came to shape her entire life. It was an event that transformed her into one of the most inspiring women of our age and the storyteller a whole world would come to love. This is the story of when a young Astrid, despite the expectations of her time and religious upbringing, decided to break free from society's norms and follow her heart.
Astrid Lindgren battles the restrictive social expectations of her youth to protect the wild, imaginative spirit that defines her. This intimate portrait traces how a singular childhood trauma fuels the creative fire of a literary icon.
