Parents/Foreldrar

Wednesday, November 4, 6:30 pm & Saturday, November 7, 3 pm

Directed by Ragnar Bragason (2007). The lives of three desperate characters intersect in this award-winning ensemble piece. In conjunction with actors from the Icelandic theatrical troupe Vesturport, who based their characters on real people, director Ragnar Bragason has produced a follow-up to Children/Börn (2006) that offers an unsentimental dramatic study of parenthood in all its potential fulfillment, suffering, and self-discovery. A dentist longs for a baby as his marriage falls apart, a woman tries to win back the respect and affections of her 11-year-old son, and a stockbroker has alienated his wife and young daughter with his workaholism. 87 min.
