Virtual Screening Event for A White, White Day

The three hour virtual event will feature an exclusive screening of the award-winning Icelandic film ‘A White, White Day’, followed by a Q&A with Director Hlynur Pálmason that will be moderated by Steve Gravestock, TIFF programmer and author, A History of Icelandic Film.

In a remote Icelandic town, an off-duty police chief begins to suspect a local man of having had an affair with his late wife, who died in a tragic accident two years earlier. Gradually his obsession for finding out the truth accumulates and inevitably begins to endanger himself and his loved ones. A story of grief, revenge and unconditional love

“A White, White Day [is] an eerily gripping study of grief — and impotence in its face — with the trappings of a revenge thriller.” – New York Times

This film will screen in Icelandic with English subtitles.

A White, White Day is coming to select virtual cinemas on May 29 and iTunes Canada on June 16.
