A cross-posting from my Geography and Film blog.
A new trailer for Sara Dosa's documentary based on Andri Snær Magnason's book 'On Time and Water' - out at the end of May.
Renowned Icelandic poet and author Andri Snær Magnason is chasing something elusive. As the glacial ice of his homeland melts, he constructs a cinematic time capsule to hold onto this moment and send it to the future, before everything he loves slips away. Using his own collected archives, his grandparents’ photographs, and films, as well as traditional songs and folktales, Andri interlaces his family’s story with that of the land around him.
From Academy Award-nominated director Sara Dosa (Fire of Love), Time and Water is a universal reflection on the power of home and what it means to be alive amid profound epochal change.
I shall be at the BFI IMAX on the 13th of June to see the film, with an extended introduction by Sara Dosa and Andri-Snær Magnason.
