1862 on the Faroe Islands, a young man who lives with his mother, is rescued by a whaler. The two men begin a relationship, however some think it kicks up dark forces.
I'm not going to do a full review because this film didn't click with me. Its not that there is anything wrong with it, but I know that this film is going to connect to a lot of people. Its a fantastic supernatural tinged romance. Its beautiful to look at, has real emotion and perfect performances. I enjoyed the hell out of it on a lot of levels.
At the same time I didn't connect. The problem was that watching it I wasn't always certain of what sort of tone the film wanted to take. As a result I couldn't find a way into the film.
You on the other hand you might find a way in. Give it a shot.
