  • De 49-jarige Halla leidt een gevaarlijk dubbelleven: publiekelijk is ze een sympathieke koordirigent, heimelijk een beruchte ecoterrorist.

  • De 49-jarige Halla leidt een gevaarlijk dubbelleven: publiekelijk is ze een sympathieke koordirigent, heimelijk een beruchte ecoterrorist. Wanneer ze de kans krijgt een kind te adopteren, staat ze voor een dilemma: blijven strijden voor Moeder Aarde, of zelf het moederschap omarmen? Buitenissig IJslands feelgooddrama van de maker van festivalhit Of Horses and Men (2013) is weer erg onderhoudend en prachtig gefilmd, met een fraaie hoofdrol van Geirhardsdóttir. De toon is knap getroffen: het absurdisme staat ontroering en diepgang niet in de weg.

  • 13 jun 2019 · Halldóra Geirhardsdóttir as Halla in (Kona fer í stríð).

  • A woman strides across the lush Icelandic landscape, confidently brandishing a bow and arrow. Despite being dwarfed by the scenery, she cuts an imposing figure; a drumbeat intensifies in pace and volume as she stalks her prey – a huge electricity pylon. Shooting a cable over the lines, she pulls with all her might and the pylon sparks ominously. Nearby, activity in the local smelting plant grinds to a halt.

  • The third feature film by Benedikt Erlingsson, after Of Horses and Men and The Show of Shows, and a great international success, starting with the world premiere at the Critics Week in Cannes in 2018, Kona fer í stríð (Woman at War) helps bring contemporary Icelandic cinema to the fore.
