The Love That Remains - EN subs

The Love that Remains is a tender and often surprisingly humorous portrait of an Icelandic family trying to navigate a separation. As the seasons pass, and through intimate scenes and estranging symbolic moments, we witness the bittersweet reality of fleeting love and shared memories.

Anna and Magnus are in the process of getting divorced. Still, they regularly spend time together for the sake of their three children, Ída and the twins Þorgils and Grímur. Magnus works at sea and is often away from home for long stretches of time. Artist Anna creates impressive works that receive far less recognition than they deserve. In search of meaning, both parents try to find their own path within this new, unfamiliar reality. But what happens to the love that remains after a breakup?

Hlynur Pálmason (known for Godland and A White, White Day) once again filmed his latest feature with his own children, letting the breathtaking Icelandic landscape play a major role.
