This was super compelling. It’s a Swedish film that had a lot of buzz going for it last year and I’m glad I finally had a chance to watch it. The acting is great. The set up for the story is about a family who go on a ski vacation and there is an avalanche. They believe they are going to die and at the last minute, the father runs and leaves his family behind, trying to save himself. Well, the avalanche was a false-alarm but now the family must come to terms with a father who wasn’t there for them at their most dire moment. It just gets more interesting from there.
There’s no action so if you don’t like dialogue, beautiful snowscapes, and long takes, you will probably hate this. Definitely recommended for anyone else.
