This is an amazing and inspiring movie, I enjoyed every minute of it. Especially performanc eof Halldóra Geirharðsdóttir is fansastic.
A very funny movie with the fantastic lead actress Halldóra Geirharðsdóttir (her name as beautiful as her acting). The music band that visibly provides the soundtrack throughout the film .... you could say that it gets boring after a while, but that is not the case, it remains surprisingly fun throughout the film.
This was great in all aspects, the only thing I felt was unnecessary is that they felt they needed to tie everything neatly at the end, change doesn't come without sacrifice, so I kind of feel that it would've sent a stronger message to have the protagonist [spoiler]sacrifice her own dream[/spoiler] for the greater good.
Still, it was a masterful storytelling and an impeccable execution. Would recommend.
_Kona fer í stríð_'s laudable intent to deal with topics as sensitive as they are urgent, such as climate change and adoption, fails miserably. The film results in a confusing and inconclusive potpourri of content that makes for progressively irritating viewing. Icing on the cake, the choice of doubling Halldóra Geirharðsdóttir to play the protagonist and her sister is embarrassing. The only merit of the film is the spectacular landscapes of Iceland.
The original title of the film is Kona fer í stríð.
