Music in Darkness (Swedish: Musik i mörker), known in the United States as Night Is My Future, is a 1948 Swedish drama film directed by Ingmar Bergman from a screenplay he co-wrote with Dagmar Edqvist, based on Edqvist's novel of the same name. The theme of blindness and of a blind's person subjective experience plays a major role in the psychological study depicted in the film. Bergman was deeply passionate about music and once said, "If I had to choose between losing my eyes or ears—I would keep my ears. I can't imagine anything more terrible than to have my music taken away from me."
