What people are saying
Updated nightlyThis quiet, personal documentary about Icelandic writer Andri Snær Magnason building a time capsule for his family and his melting glaciers is getting a very warm reception. People found its story profoundly moving and its visuals stunning, with director Sara Dosa’s work earning particular praise. While it's a one-man show and the "acting" isn't the point, Andri's intimate narration is seen as the film's emotional core, making the themes of memory and climate loss feel immediate and heartbreaking. A few critics, like one from IndieWire, weren't as convinced, but most are calling it a beautiful and original piece of filmmaking.
