#I REMEMBER YOU 2017 MOVIE#

Freyr is working late one night when a shadowy figure who might be his missing son Benni leads him down to the morgue, where he discovers that the recent suicide victim’s back is covered in cross-shaped scars. The other storyline follows married couple Garðar and Katrín and friend Líf, who journey to some isolated spot in Iceland’s hinterlands to convert an old abandoned house into a B&B.Īs Freyr and Dagný work on the suicide case, certain details emerge, as they tend to do, which tie the two narratives together. Freyr is asked by a local police detective named Dagný to help document a suicide at a church.

There are two main narratives here: one follows Freyr, a psychologist whose son Benni disappeared some time before the movie begins. Everybody is bundled up all the time, and the landscape, while beautiful, is super bleak and frigid-looking. And boy does Iceland look cold in this film. I Remember You is an Icelandic movie, in case you were wondering what the hell any of that had to do with anything. I guess this shouldn’t come as a surprise, it being, you know, Iceland and all.

I was supposed to go to a conference in London this week, but my connection to Reykjavik was canceled due to inclement weather.
