Woman at War
Kona fer í stríð · dir. Benedikt Erlingsson
Iceland, France, Ukraine 2018, 101’ · Polish premiere
23 October, 17:30 · Cinema City — room 6
A local eco-activist declares war against a powerful concern, which threatens the natural environment in Iceland. Halla wants to protect what she believes in, even if her adversaries try to spoil her reputation. If Frances McDormand managed to bring you down to your knees in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, then Halla is going to prove that it only takes one woman to turn the world dominated by men upside down!
