What Remains of Love

On an Icelandic plateau, purple heather slowly fades—and with it, the relationship between Magnus and Anna, a fisherman and an artist, who search for a way out of their marital silence amid harsh landscape. Director Hlynur Pálmason (A White, White Day, Forgotten Land) shows with characteristic poetry how much love can endure even when it seems to be gone; melancholy naturally intertwines with gentle magical realism and humor. Authentic performances bring the film extraordinary tenderness and credibility.
