In the small town of Skelleftehamn in northern Sweden during the year 1820, a mysterious stranger named Meisner arrives. He introduces himself as a 'magnetist', claiming to possess healing powers that even doctors cannot achieve. Dr. Selander, initially skeptical but desperate for his daughter Maria's blindness to be cured, allows Meisner to treat her. Remarkably, Maria regains her sight and falls in love with the charming magnetist. As their bond deepens, dark secrets and repressed memories begin to surface, threatening the harmony of their newfound relationship.
Set against the backdrop of early 19th century Sweden, 'Magnetisøren's femte vinter' (The Magnetizer's Fifth Winter) is a compelling drama that intertwines romance, mysticism, and psychological intrigue. Directed by Morten Henriksen in 1999, the film explores themes of healing, trust, and the hidden truths beneath seemingly ordinary lives.

As love blossoms between Maria and Meisner, their relationship unearths long-buried secrets that challenge the fabric of their lives.
