Very well done. Great cinematography. Arresting plot. Humorous yet darkly compelling.

Iceland seems to be playing the role of Ireland in one of those cute smalltown Irish comedies like "The Snapper" and "Waking Ned Devine". Iceland doesn't seem like a bad place to visit as seen through this filmmaker's lens. When Freyja(Margret Vilhjalmsdottir) complains about the environs as being unlivable, we'd better believe her if she existed in the diegesis of Baltasar Komasur's "The Sea", or "101 Reykjavik". Nice ending, though. As Agga, Ugla Egilsdottir looks a lot like Christina Ricci, and we wonder if her narration was trustworthy. Expand
