AKA: Snerting (Icelandic)
Nearing the end of his life, a lonely man facing memory issues decides to go journeying into the past and unlock the mystery of the sudden disappearance of his long-lost love from 50 years prior. The story unfolds by jumping back and forth in time, as he contemplates life choices and what might have been. A gentle narrative proving that, despite a conventional-sounding plot, a story told well can be affecting regardless. It's the type of film that will give you pause and have you reflecting on your own life. Everything is fleeting.
