Echo
Bergmál
Iceland at Christmas, and everyone is preparing for the holidays. Meanwhile, in the countryside, an abandoned farm is burning. In a school, a children’s choir is singing carols. In a slaughterhouse, chickens are parading along a rail. In a museum, a mother is arguing with her ex-husband on the phone. In a living room, a young girl is making her grandmother try on her new virtual reality headset. Fifty-six scenes form a portrait, both biting and tender, of modern society.
