Two Birds

This 15-minute film is more powerful and beautiful than many feature films. Eye movements are more important than dialogue here. In an authentic setting, childhood fragility and innocence come face to face with abominably gray reality, for which pure love is the only remedy. (01/23/2010)

As soon as I see that a movie was made in Iceland, there’s no hesitation on my part. You can also watch this short movie online, so why not. A bit of depression in the living room can’t be a bad thing. But this was rough. Awfully rough. But amidst all that rough reality, there was a small bit of hope and a good chunk of love, which proves that it can always get worse. And it truly can. (07/13/2014)

A powerful film about how adolescence can sometimes be far from beautiful. Sometimes there is a turning point where it becomes even less pleasant. This film is quite tough, even though it doesn't actually show anything tough. It's like a rough hallucination, where upon waking up, you realize that you are no longer the person you once were, but what is worse, you actually enjoy it. (08/28/2014)
