Dir. Lucile Hadžihalilović | 2025 | 118 mins plus Q&A | French with English Subtitles
A hypnotic new fairytale from Lucile Hadžihalilović (Innocence, Evolution).
In her most fantastical feature yet, The Ice Tower follows Jeanne (newcomer Clara Pacini), a teenager who escapes her secluded orphanage and slips onto the set of a lavish adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen. Drawn into the production, she forms a tense and mesmerising bond with its formidable star, Cristina — played by Academy Award winner Marion Cotillard (La Vie en Rose, Inception).
As the fragile boundary between reality and fable begins to fracture, they embark on a spellbinding journey that unfolds toward a chilling finale.
Winner of the Silver Berlin Bear for Outstanding Artistic Contribution (2025) and Best Film at the Neuchâtel International Fantastic and San Sebastián Film Festivals.
★★★★★ “A mesmeric melodrama.” — Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
Plus Zoom Q&A with Director Lucile Hadžihalilović.
