Winter Brothers will be a part of Vancouver Film Festival, more here.
An eccentric, dissonant film navigating the forlorn nature of an outsider, Winter Brothers is punctuated with bursts of surrealism and bouts of dark humour. Shot in a cool 16mm that blends into its snowy environment, Hlynur Pálmason’s debut feature is an impressive, immersive look into the cold world of a remote limestone mine through the eyes of Emil, an awkward, fragile man who can’t quite fit in.
