Godland at GFT
14 – 20 April, 2023
Hlynur Pálmason’s (A White, White Day; Winter Brothers) extraordinary third feature follows Danish Lutheran priest, Lucas (Elliott Crosset Hove), on his task to establish a parish in the barren wilds of Iceland where the locals are less than receptive to his spiritual advances. However, Lucas remains both in awe of and unsettled by the beauty and indifference of the natural world. Just as he understands language to be a barrier between him and his potential congregation, so Lucas sees the landscape as a wildness he must tame. The deeper he travels into the unforgiving landscape, the more he loses touch with his own reality, his mission and his sense of duty.
