A White, White Day / Hvítur, hvítur dagur

Ingimundur (Ingvar Sigurðsson), police officer and widower, mourns his wife who died in an accident. At the same time, he is renovating a house for his daughter’s family and spending a great deal of time with his granddaughter (Ída Mekkín Hlynsdóttir). But as life goes on, he is riddled with jealousy: did his wife have an affair before she died? Hlynur Pálmason’s second feature film strikes a balance between obsession and an ironic, precise observation that restores lightness to even the heaviest matters.
