Under the Tree (Undir Trénu)

Dir. Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurðsson | Iceland 2018 | 89 min | 15 | Subtitled

Two Families. One Tree. A Bloody Mess. 

Under the Tree is an Icelandic pitch-black dramedy, where distrust and petty conflicts boil over into violent acts of extremism. This dark suburban satire tells the story of a man who is accused of adultery by his ex-fiancée and forced to move in with his parents. While he fights for custody of his four-year-old daughter, he is gradually sucked into a bitter dispute between his parents and their neighbours regarding an old and beautiful tree that casts a shadow on the neighbours’ deck. As the dispute intensifies – property is damaged, pets mysteriously go missing, security cameras are being installed and there is a rumour that the neighbour was seen with a chainsaw. 

The cast is led by Steinthor Hroar Steinthorsson, Edda Björgvinsdóttir and Sigurdur Sigurjónsson (Rams).

Tickets: £7.75 adult / £6 concession (inc. Poly Fund)
