Though seemingly in the throes of a splitting up, Anna (Saga Garðarsdóttir) and Magnus (Sverrir Gudnason) still spend time together for the sake of their three children, Ída and twins Þorgils and Grímur (played, remarkably, by the three real-life children of director Pálmason). Magnus works at sea, infrequently returning to land, where he asserts himself as the patriarch with limited efficacy. Anna is an artist whose vast and impressive works fail to receive suitable recognition. In their interactions, whilst there's sufficient indication of why the separation is happening, there's also the familiarity of a long-held love and a glimmer of a chance of reconciliation...

Often taking playful and laugh-out-loud diversions, Pálmason's deeply felt film conveys so much love for its characters and the gorgeous Icelandic environment, delivering a soulful look at the importance of family and shared memories amidst the changing seasons. 

Special mention must also be made of the incredible performance of the director’s sheepdog, Panda, who joined The Artist’s Uggie and Anatomy Of A Fall’s Messi as winner of the prestigious Palme d’Og award at Cannes.

Our beloved catering crew will be offering pre-show nibbles and drinks. 

Enjoy the wonders of cinema...
