HVITUR, HVITUR DAGUR (A WHITE, WHITE DAY)

Watchable. Had it been more subtle and the white meant snow instead of mystic mist, it would've been more convincing than the straight in your face nudity or blood and violence. Also Ingvar Eggert SigurĂ°sson's exaggerated acting as Ingimundur or insertions of theatrical characters dressed in foil make the whole thing feel forced. While the silence, peace and occasional beautiful vistas of Iceland reflect the reality of the island, the plot doesn't.
