Tonight we saw Norwegian veteran Bent Hamer's film, Hjem Til Jul, it looks at fractured families at Christmastime. As with his earlier work, the film shuttles smartly between serious drama and the gently absurdist comedy Hamer is known for. I absolutely loved this, it was beautiful, emotional and funny. Definitely recommend it.
The image I have chosen was from a very moving scene, the church itself was not merely a back drop, Bent told us after the film the history of this church, and it was a very painful one.
